We were delighted to win a national award for our Recycling: Let's Sort It campaign

The Story Adventurers' Club is a new reading challenge offered by Wiltshire Council libraries and aimed at inspiring four to 16 year-olds to read for pleasure all year round.

Wiltshire Council Libraries are celebrating Libraries Week (2-8 October) with activities and books on the themes of recycling, sustainability and climate change.

Library staff have used innovative approaches to continue providing online resources and group sessions during the pandemic, including rhyme times, story times, tea and chat sessions, book reviews, author talks and 'how to' guides

Art fans and book lovers will be able to once again enjoy the Edwin Young Gallery, reopening on Thursday 20 May, and some longer opening hours at libraries across Wiltshire from Monday 17 May.

Wiltshire Council has installed a new commercial-sized bin on George Street, Warminster, to help solve the issue of fly-tipping on this street.

A man from Lyneham has been fined £400 after CCTV captured him leaving bin liners full of waste next to the recycling bins in Sainsbury's car park, Royal Wootton Bassett. The waste was deposited directly underneath a sign warning people not to fly-tip waste next to recycling bins, and advising them of the consequences of fly-tipping.
