Matthew Bailey

I was proud to represent Paddock Wood on Tunbridge Wells Borough Council. I was first elected for this role in 2019.

I was also a member of the TWBC Cabinet, serving as the Portfolio Holder for the Environment.

Paddock Wood faces a number of challenges in the coming years, including managing housing growth and ensuring the town has the infrastructure to handle the new residents. I worked with planners at the borough council, Paddock Wood Town Council and other organisations such as Southern Water to manage these issues.
