East Malling Conservation Group
The East Malling Conservation Group is concerned with the over-urbanisation of the landscape around and about East Malling and the insensitive nature of many local developments.
The group is an occasional hirer of the Institute, using the Hall for meetings, exhibitions and social events.

As part of the 2021 Heritage Open Days, EMCG held an exhibition of old photographs at the Institute Hall in conjunction with East Malling & Larkfield Parish Council. During the afternoon David Thornewell lead a Heritage Walk through the Mill Street and Blacklands Conservation Areas, including Clare Lake, stopping at intervals to speak about various heritage features.
The Mayor, Cllr Roger Roud, who is also a Member of EMCG and a keen local historian, was guest of honour at the exhibition and EMCG has donated funds from the refreshments to the Mayor's charity of the year, Kent Air Ambulance.
