There were an additional 1,100 non-UK short-term residents who were not counted as usual residents on the Census day. The population growth rate between 2001 and 2011 at 5.7%, or an annual growth of 3,200 people, was lower than the national average of 7.8%. A third of the growth was attributable to Gloucester where demographic demand for services and infrastructure would have surged during the period. The current population consisted of 136,600 children and young people aged 0- 19, 349,000 adults aged 20-64, and 111,400 older people aged 65 or above. This included an increase in the working age and the older population, and a small reduction in the number of children and young people in the previous 10 years.

  • Wheelchair Users Get Dedicated Coach on Railway
    NEWS RELEASE – Sunday 17 November 2013 Wheelchair users get dedicated coach on Wiltshire’s heritage railway Journeys on Wiltshire’s only standard gauge railway are now available to wheelchair users following the completion of a four year project to renovate a 1959 railway coach to provide disabled access. The new coach was launched by The Swindon and Cricklade Railway on Sunday 17 November on the same day that the charity marked its 35th anniversary. Representatives from the railway charity were joined by Michael Hill, chief executive of the Hills Group, whose company provided £27,000 of funding for the project through the Landfill Communities Fund which is administered for Hills by Community First, the Rural Community Council for Wiltshire. The mayor of Swindon, Cllr Nick Martin, was also in attendance. Dedicated railway volunteers overcame severe weather conditions and what seemed like an unsurmountable number of repairs to convert the old ‘corridor style’ coach into an open and integrated one with full wheelchair access including an onboard toilet for disabled train users. The coach is named LAURA, after the wife of The Hills Group founder, Edward Hill, who established the Wiltshire-based company back in 1900. Michael Hill said: “I am so impressed with what has been achieved by the enthusiastic group of volunteers to deliver this project. They have had many setbacks along the way, but their sheer determination has ensured that this marvellous railway experience can be enjoyed by all. Hills is proud to have supported this project and

  • Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages
    Ancient Market Towns and Beautiful Villages Wiltshire is blessed with a fantastic variety of historic market towns and stunning picturesque villages, each one with something to offer. Here are a sample of Wiltshire’s beautiful market towns and villages. Amesbury Nestling within a loop of the River Avon alongside the A303, just 1½ miles from Stonehenge, historic Amesbury is a destination not to be missed. With recent evidence of a large settlement from 8820BC and a breath-taking Mesolithic collection, Amesbury History Centre will amaze visitors with its story of the town where history began. Bradford on Avon The unspoilt market town of Bradford on Avon offers a mix of delightful shops, restaurants, hotels and bed and breakfasts lining the narrow streets, not to mention a weekly market on Thursdays (8am-4pm). Still a natural focus at the centre of the town, the ancient bridge retains two of its 13th century arches and offers a fabulous view of the hillside above the town - dotted with the old weavers' cottages – and the river bank flanked by 19th century former cloth mills. Calne Calne evolved during the 18th and 19th centuries with the wool industry. Blending the old with the new, much of the original Calne is located along the River Marden where some of the historic buildings still remain. There is also the recently restored Castlefields Park with nature trails and cycle path easily accessible from the town centre. Castle Combe Set within the stunning Wiltshire Cotswolds, Castle Combe is a classically quaint English village. Often referred to as the ‘prettiest village in England’, it has even been featured regularly on the big screen – most recently in Hollywood blockbuster ‘The Wolfman’ and Stephen Spielberg’s ‘War Horse’.
