The formal transfer from Wiltshire Council to Cricklade Town Council has been completed

Wiltshire Council has worked with local leisure facility partners Places Leisure, Cricklade and District Community Association and Brian Whitehead Sports Centre Association (Downton Leisure Centre, operated by Gymies Ltd) to apply for support funding from the Government's National Leisure Recovery Fund and have been allocated £865k.

Following government confirmation that Step 2 of the roadmap will proceed, all 20 leisure centres across the county will reopen from Monday 12 April

Locals will notice activity on the Melksham Community Campus site in January, with archaeological work set to get under way as preparations for full construction continue.

Government has confirmed that Wiltshire will remain in Tier 2

To help inform any future works as part of the Salisbury River Park proposals, the Environment Agency is carrying out preliminary ground investigation work at the Maltings and Central Area Car Park.

Our Wiltshire Wellbeing Hub will continue to provide support from Monday to Friday, but is no longer running at weekends.

Following a delay to its opening due to the national restrictions, Calne Community Campus is now open
