Statement to voters

I am delighted to have been selected as one of the Conservative Candidates for Southborough and Bidborough for this year’s local election.

Full statement

Until polling day on 2 May, alongside my fantastic fellow candidates, Sarah Bridges and Peter Oakford, I will be campaigning tirelessly to ensure that Southborough and Bidborough have three energetic, passionate and above all, effective, local representatives.

Having lived in Tunbridge Wells all my life, I am so proud of the local community we have here. From growing up going to church at St Thomas’, to starting my ill-fated foray into football on the Ridgeway, I know the fantastic individuals and opportunities that our area contains. My grandparents have lived in Southborough for fifty years, and how lucky they have been to live in such a lovely area for such a long time. As your Borough Councillor, I would be determined to do all I can to support this excellent local community, and fight for change where residents want it.

As the youngest candidate in last year’s local elections, while I may not have the years of other candidates, I certainly understand the issues of the day. Not to mention, I am standing with a dedicated Town Councillor in Sarah Bridges and a seasoned Kent County Councillor in Peter Oakford. Combining their experience and insight, with my understanding of the issues facing residents of all ages and energy to serve my community, I believe we have a terrific team.

I was very lucky to receive a fantastic education from two local schools. First at St John’s CoE Primary, where I was delighted to return to work as a Teaching Assistant in my last summer holidays, and then Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys, where I served as Head Boy in my final year. Again, it was a pleasure to return to TWGSB last year to give a speech to the Sixth Form about life at university. My education at both of these schools has allowed me to study Philosophy, Politics and Economics at university. I owe so much to our local community, and am determined to do all I can to give back.

I am very keen to hear your views on what needs to be done better in Southborough and Bidborough. If I haven’t managed to speak to you on the doorstep yet, or if you’ve thought of more local issues since then, please don’t hesitate to email me at alexpuffette.tw@gmail.com
