  • Covid-19 Community Groups Directory
    COVID-19 COMMUNITY GROUPS DIRECTORY updated 13 August 2020 1 DM20_295 ONLINE INTRODUCTION The communities of Wiltshire have risen to the challenge of COVID-19 to make sure people are supported through this very difficult time. The council has collated all the community groups we have identified so far so that those who need support for themselves or a loved one can make direct contact. In the time available we have only been able to collate this directory and therefore this is not an endorsement of the groups listed but it is for you to decide what use you will make of the offers of support at this time. If anyone uses a community group and has concerns about the response/practice please inform us by emailing [email protected] giving the clear reasons for your concern. The council wants to ensure that everybody can access the support they need. If you make contact with a group and they cannot help or you do not get a response within the required timeframe, then please do not hesitate to contact the council by emailing [email protected] and we will ensure you get the support you need. FOOD BANKS At this difficult time, food banks are in need of more volunteers and donations. If you are able to help in any way please get in touch with your local food bank. Food banks are there to support vulnerable people in a crisis, which is usually subject to a referral from a trusted source such as a social worker.

  • Settlement Strategy
    Wiltshire Local Development Framework Working towards a Core Strategy for Wiltshire Topic paper 3: Settlement strategy Appendices Wiltshire Core Strategy Consultation January 2012 Wiltshire Council Information about Wiltshire Council services can be made available on request in other languages including BSL and formats such as large print and audio. Please contact the council on 0300 456 0100, by textphone on 01225 712500 or by email on [email protected]. Appendix A – Role and Function Study of Local Service Centres Planning Policy Statement 12 (PPS12, 2008) recognises that a settlement strategy is key to ensuring sustainable patterns of development are delivered in appropriate locations at an appropriate scale. The Settlement Strategy Topic Paper provides the detailed background explaining how the settlement strategy for Wiltshire has been identified. Categorising the role and function of settlements is an important first step that will help to understand appropriate levels of growth that should be planned for within settlements. The 2011 Settlement Strategy seeks to provide a framework within which the ambitions of Wiltshire‟s rural communities can be realised. As part of this framework a number of settlements, which are considered to have a pronounced role in the rural area and in most cases act as local services centres serving the wider rural hinterland are identified. There were 5 settlements that have been identified as potentially having a service centre role. These settlements are; Cricklade, Lyneham, Market Lavington, Pewsey & Purton. In very general terms a Local Service Centre will have some or all of the following characteristics. Large population (over 2,000) Significant employment base; A very good range of services; A secondary school; Excellent transport connections; Potential to support development in the rural area; The largest settlement within the community.

  • Edward Thomas - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Edward Thomas - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Edward Thomas(3 March 1878 - 9 April 1917) Phillip Edward Thomas was an Anglo-Welsh writer of prose and poetry. He is commonly considered a war poet, although few of his poems deal directly with his war experiences. Already an accomplished writer, Thomas turned to poetry only in 1914. He enlisted in the army in 1915, and was killed in action during the Battle of Arras in 1917, soon after he arrived in France. <b>Early Life</b> Thomas was born in Lambeth, London. He was educated at Battersea Grammar School, St Paul's School and Lincoln College, Oxford. His family were mostly Welsh. Unusually, he married while still an undergraduate and determined to live his life by the pen. He then worked as a book reviewer, reviewing up to 15 books every week. He was already a seasoned writer by the outbreak of war, having published widely as a literary critic and biographer, as well as a writer on the countryside. He also wrote a novel, The Happy-Go-Lucky Morgans (1913). Thomas worked as literary critic for the Daily Chronicle in London and became a close friend of Welsh tramp poet W. H. Davies, whose career he almost single- handedly developed. From 1905, Thomas lived with his wife Helen and their family at Elses Farm near Sevenoaks, Kent. He rented a tiny cottage nearby for Davies and nurtured his writing as best he could. On one occasion, Thomas even had to arrange for the manufacture, by a local wheelwright, of a makeshift wooden leg for Davies.

  • Manningford Parish Council
    Item 09e (1) MANNINGFORD PARISH COUNCIL CHAIRMAN’S REPORT FOR 2010 - 2011 Dear Parishioner, General. This is my fourth and final annual report as Chairman of Manningford Parish Council (MPC). It has been an eventful year and this report summarises some of the key issues arising. MPC is, by definition, a voluntary body at the service of Manningford Parish. We welcome all shades of opinion and attendance at our bi-monthly meetings. Police. Councillor (Cllr) Paul Pelham represents MPC on police matters. There have been no issues of major concern in the past 12 months. We continue to be enrolled in the Neighbourhood Watch (NW) scheme and NW signs placed on roads entering the parish. Home emergency booklets will be issued in due course. Point of Contact (PoC) for Paul Pelham is: [email protected] or 01980 630036. Highways. The PC has continued to pursue its policy of applying for a 40mph limit on the A345 from The Woodbridge Inn through to Pewsey. Wiltshire Council (WC) has advised that a complete review of the existing speed limits on all A/B roads in the county will have been completed by the end of 2011. C roads such as the Manningford Bruce/Abbots C52 will be surveyed afterwards, but there is no definitive timeframe for this to be completed. It is the PC view that all lanes previously designated as Quiet Lanes should be limited to 40mph, with a 30mph limit within all villages. This could well be reduced to 20 mph, if agreed nationally. MPC campaigns for safer roads in the Parish, especially a reduction in the number of heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) using the village as a transit route.
