You are invited to have your say on proposals to relocate Tunbridge Wells Family Hub services to The Amelia Scott.

The proposed move would keep services in the heart of Tunbridge Wells, around a 10-minute walk from the current site, while creating opportunities to strengthen the Family Hub offer and work more closely with partners.

We all have our part to play in reducing the risk of fires starting. 🔥
