Hello digitalservices@tunbridgewells.gov.uk
Here is your weekly update from Tunbridge Wells Borough Council

What are we doing about climate change?We have just released our Borough Climate Change Strategy for consultation! The Council has developed this borough-wide Climate Change Strategy to identify the key actions required to set the borough on the path to net zero. It has been designed with residents in mind, ensuring that community is at the heart of all that we do. It is now your turn to tell us what you think! There are many ways to share your views, you can read the strategy and feed back on Talking Point, you can take our short survey, and you can register to attend a focus group! | |

Got an awkward or bulky item to dispose of? Our bulky waste collection service will remove heavy or large items too big to fit in your bin. To visit the household waste recycling centre at North Farm you must book a slot in advance using the Kent County Council booking system.
Remember you can put old batteries out during your recycling collection week and small electrical items and textiles on your household waste collection week.
