We are pleased to welcome Councillor David Osborne is the new Mayor of Tunbridge Wells having been elected at the Annual Meeting of the council on Wednesday 21 May 2025.

As well as representing the borough of Tunbridge Wells, it is customary for the Mayor to support local charitable causes. David has chosen Royal Tunbridge Wells Sea Cadets and Royal Marines Cadets (TS Brilliant) as the charity he will fundraise for.  As well as fund-raising for the Sea Cadets, David has also reintroduced the tradition of having a sea cadet supporting him at civic events during his term of office.

Councillor Beverley Palmer who represents Hawkhurst Sandhurst and Benenden ward was elected as Deputy Mayor.

We wish both of them every success during their term in office
