Welcome to Tonbridge Civic Society
What we do
We exist to support our town’s heritage, while boosting standards of design and architecture in future developments. We’ve been giving local people a voice on planning decisions and helping to preserve historic buildings for nearly 60 years. Today, as our population grows and changes, there’s never been a greater need for people to voice their opinions about preservation and development.
In response, we’re refreshing our leadership and focus. We will retain our current aims of championing planning excellence and conserving historic buildings, but also redouble efforts to engage with people in the town. We’re especially keen to understand the needs of young people and to work with schools, supporting learning about the town’s development – past, present and future.
To help achieve this, we want to grow four areas of our work:
