Sandwich was once one of the most important ports in the country and, today, has a sense of place that many smaller towns yearn for. With a rich urban heritage filled with many wonderful properties and an active social calendar, there's a sense of the continent in Sandwich that is next nearest found over the channel.
Those of us lucky enough to live here know that we need to do more to make sure Sandwich doesn't lose its charm while fighting hard to make sure we get the services we still desperately need. Your Town Councillor, Martyn Pennington, is doing just that.
Our stance in sandwich, Councillor Martyn Pennington
WE SUPPORT measures to make water companies improve their miserable performance in Kent. Successive governments have been too soft on big companies.
WE SUPPORT a cap on current parking charges in Sandwich, in the face of the pathetic attempts of DDC to slap increases on them. It is just another tax to try to balance their books. Sandwich needs visitors and needs people who come here to work not to be priced away.
WE SUPPORT our local schools which are essential for maintaining the family life of our town.
