Confirmation of how Wiltshire's leisure centres, libraries and the history centre will be supporting the upcoming elections

Wiltshire Council is urging people to cancel any bookings for household recycling centre (HRCs) visits that they no longer need, at least a day in advance, as more than 500 appointments are being missed during some weeks.

Wiltshire's libraries and the history centre are set to reopen from Monday 12 April, in line with Step 2 of the Government's roadmap

We are preparing to begin reopening Wiltshire libraries and the Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre from 3 December.

Some of our libraries will be here for you during restrictions

Wiltshire's Household Waste Recycling Centres (HRCs) will remain open as the country goes into a second lockdown to help stop the spread of Coronavirus. People should continue to use the online booking system to book a slot, and maintain social distancing at all times when on site.

Five more libraries will reopen in Wiltshire over the next three weeks. These libraries will be fully reopened for people to browse for up to 30 minutes, to select and loan books and book a computer for up to 45 minutes.

Wiltshire Council's first ever live Facebook rhyme time has proven to be a hit for families throughout Wiltshire and beyond.

Following government advice and to help stop the transmission of COVID-19, Wiltshire Council has taken the decision to close all its libraries and leisure centres until further notice.

We are changing the recycling system in Wiltshire to make it even easier for people to use the kerbside recycling collection service.
