Do you look after, or help to look after a loved one or friend?

Illness, disability, old age; there are many reasons why three in five of us will look after a loved one and become carers at some point in our lives. Becoming a carer can affect personal finances, social life, education and employment, and general health and well-being. Who cares? We do.

Carer Support Wiltshire is a local charity which can help you access the information and support you might need.  We also offer one to one and group support, carer cafes, complementary therapy sessions and breaks from your caring role.

So whether you’re caring full time, for a few days a week, or juggling work with looking after someone, don’t struggle on your own. Contact us on 0800 181 4118 or visit our website at www.carersupportwiltshire.co.uk

Community Engagement Consultation

“COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT CONSULTATION: ‘Possible Neighbourhood Plan Sites’ is now running from March 8^th to   March 29^th 2018.

  Full Regulation 14 consultation lasting 6 weeks will take place later this summer. However, the community has this additional opportunity now to comment on site options  in the community engagement now being held. Sessions will be held at North Bradley Baptist Church on Friday 16 March  5.30 – 7.30 p.m   and Saturday 17 March  10.00 – 12.00 a.m  &  2.30- 4.30 p.m.

The deadline for questionnaire responses is 29^th March; however, we may be able to accept late response up until 5^th April.     Responses can be made in person at the events being held (see this above for details), via e-mail or letter (ideally using response forms available from the parish clerk) or direct to the parish clerk at: or by post to 12 Churchlands, North Bradley BA14 0TD

 It has not been decided whether sites will be allocated at all.  However if any are, then they are likely to be aimed at meeting modest levels of growth for local needs only. The purpose of the report is to examine some possibilities and also to check to see if anyone wishes to suggest alternatives. Following community engagement on the report, the findings will go into the Neighbourhood Development Plan draft which will go out to formal consultation later in the summer.
