Fashion Week has
received a major boost
after a top fashion firm
added its support to the
catwalk extravaganza.
Jaeger has joined the line-up
for the eagerly-anticipated
event which runs from
February 24-26.
It will take part in the
two days of special
fashion shows taking
place at Hoopers and
the Brew House
Hotel.
And the models
will be wearing
the same high-
end women's fash-
ions that are set
to wow guests at
this month's London Fashion Week,
from February 19-23.
Organisers say the inclusion of
Jaeger Ladies and Menswear
Tunbridge Wells is the icing on the
cake for the local event.
Salvador Fernandez, Jaeger
regional manager, said: "This is a
great opportunity to work closely
with other local companies to pro-
mote Tunbridge Wells as a destina-
tion town for shopping and culture,
while supporting the NSPCC."
The children's charity will benefit
from the events.
TheTunbridgeWells event has also
attracted another big name from
London Fashion Week � www.gently-
wornvintage.co.uk
The deputy editor of Grazia maga-
zine Marianne Jones has accepted an
invitation to attend, along with fash-
ionista Karena Sedgewick from
www.mynewbestfriends.com Karen
won a competition to blog from the
front row of the London event.
All of them will join the best of the
town's top-end boutiques who will be
showcasing their own latest collec-
tions. They include Kitch, Mini
Maya, La Belle Femme, Little
London, Greens Menswear and
Country Style.
In addition, there's the chance to
win a luxury weekend for two at The
Brew House Hotel plus a photogra-
phy package from Venture Portrait.
The combined prize is worth more
than �700.

Hotel complex on Warwick Park.
TIME is running out for nominations to find
the most wildlife-friendly farmers in Kent.
The Nature of Farming Award is a national
contest to find the farmer who has put in the
most work for nature on their land and is sup-
ported by the RSPB, Butterfly Conservation,
Plantlife and BBC Countryfile Magazine.
Bruce Fowkes RSPB farmland advisor in the
south east said: "There's a strong tradition of
farmers in Kent managing their land with
wildlife in mind to support species such as the
lapwing and turtle dove.
"We hope this is reflected in the nominations
and final award."
The deadline for nominations is February
28. Nominations from across the UK will be
narrowed down to a shortlist of eight regional
winners. A panel of experts will then whittle
the shortlist down to four national finalists
and the public will be asked to vote for the
winner in an online poll.
Details on how to enter can be found at
www.rspb.org.uk/natureoffarming.
NEIGHBOURHOOD officers have been work-
ing with a housing association to tackle antiso-
cial behaviour.
Residents raised concerns about young peo-
ple meeting and littering in the car park oppo-
site One Stop Shop in Seal Road, Sevenoaks.
West Kent Housing is set to put a removable
post at the entrance to the car park to stop nui-
sance vehicles gaining access.
The neighbourhood policing team has also
been patrolling the area.
PCSO Gareth Nutt, said: "We listened to the
concerns of the people and took action. The
area is now tidier and more attractive and we
will make sure it stays that way."
