Coronavirus Kent: Southern Counties East Premier Division side Tunbridge Wells offer free access to NHS staff

Tunbridge Wells are to give NHS staff free access to games for the whole of next season.

The Southern Counties East Premier Division side were making a bid for promotion during the last campaign - which has been cancelled - and will be looking to contest at the top end again whenever the new season gets underway.

They are the second SCEFL side to promote free entry to health workers, with Division 1 side Rochester United doing the same, along with a host of other add-ons.

The Spartans are also offering them a free matchday programme, free burger or chips and also a free tea/coffee or beer for any NHS staff members who visit Rede Court Road next season.

Tunbridge Wells, who play at the Culverden Stadium, had a new team put together at the start of last season by former Lordswood manager Richard Styles, who signed off the campaign by saying: “This is a situation that none of us could have prevented but we will come back together, stronger.

“The season may be over, but the journey has only just begun! I look forward to seeing you all next season.”

Their club is one of many to be asking fans to help contribute to the running costs during the coronavirus crisis, with the hope of raising £20,000.

Fans across the county have been digging deep to help their clubs.
