Past...

Kent Enterprise Trust (KET) was founded in 1982 with the goal of enabling people to work. CADET set up training and employment schemes to: -

 

  • Provide socially meaningful work
  • Reduce the high unemployment of the time
  • Provide opportunities to progress into employment with the necessary skills to perform and achieve

By providing these, KET aimed to contribute to the long term economic recovery of the district.

Present...

These objectives remain the same, and CADET has recently been expanded and re-named Kent Enterprise Trust (KET).

KET trustees

Our small Board of Trustees all take an active interest in the work of the Trust and between them offer expertise from the private, public and voluntary sectors. The focus remains on:
