Community Achievements

Volunteers and local community groups meet regularly to carry out routine maintenance visits necessary to keep all our schemes looking good throughout the year.

The OTRA Gardeners meet every Monday afternoon to maintain the increasing number of sites around the Old Town area and also help to support local residents who perhaps have limited knowledge of gardening but wish to become involved in maintaining their “local patch”.

Cambria Bridge Community Gardeners meet every fortnight to develop the area along the old Canal path and around the Play Park, transforming the area into an attractive, nature friendly, interactive outside space. Everyone is welcome to come along to help and its proving to be a wonderful way to talk with passers-by about the benefits of community involvement.

Volunteers from the Nepalese Association of Wiltshire carry out monthly litter picks at various locations around the eastern side of the Parish.

We also facilitate and support local residents, organisations, schools, and businesses to volunteer on projects in their local community.
