Edenbridge has a Community Warden
who provides a link between those who live and work here
and the organisations which serve the community, such
as the Town Council, Housing Associations, County and
District councils, and the Police. The role is funded
by a jig-saw of contributions from several authorities,
and two local charities - the John Coldman Trust and the
Great Stone Bridge Trust.
The Warden provides a useful
route for a two-way exchange of information, and is a
valuable extra pair of friendly eyes and ears when out
and about. He patrols round the parish, on foot and
in his distinctive vehicle, checking on issues which can
spoil the daily environment for local people, including
anti-social behaviour such as graffiti, litter, fly-tipping,
dog-fouling and vandalism - and arranging for them to
be dealt with as soon as possible.
To contact the current Community
Warden
Richard Gordon call 07920 099235.
