'''Tunbridge Wells CHE Group''' was a local group of the [[Campaign for Homosexual Equality]], based in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent. It was founded by [[Ross Burgess]] who had moved to the area and wanted to get to know other gay people locally. It undertook campaigning activities and organised discos and other social events.

The group came to prominence when CHE applied to Tunbridge Wells Council to hold a concert by the noted pianist and CHE supporter [[Peter Katin]] in aid of CHE funds, and the Council refused to allow the use of the Assembly Rooms for the concert. Following Ross Burgess, the late [[Jim Edgell]], subsequently a member of the CHE National Executive, took over as convenor.

When CHE decided to separate itself from its local groups, the group was renamed TWIGG (Tunbridge Wells Independent Gay Group).
