More than just a place to live.
PROJECTS
Each year there are many hanging baskets around Chippenham with over twenty colourful plants in each, including Geraniums, Petunias and Fuchsias to brighten up the town. The baskets are self-watering which enables more efficient use of the water supply, keeping the baskets looking their best throughout the summer.
This is a scheme enabled by the town council and this year has seen an increase in the spread of these lovely baskets to the once neglected area of the Artisan Quarter with the intention to spread to include at other areas of the town by encouraging businesses more businesses to take part.
The community movement that began
over two years ago now continues to grow with an expanding voluntary membership that forms the main Town Team which links the movement with the statutory authorities, and/or on one of the Quarters. The 4 Quarters cover the area of Chippenham of which are:
BUSINESS SUPPORT
These are all community people who have come together and given their time voluntarily because they are keen to develop the areas in which they live/work - with a simple aim of contributing to a vision of a future of Chippenham that will become a reality to benefit both this generation and those still to come.
​
Each Quarter has it's own Chair and Vice Chair who hold monthly meetings which local business owners attend.
ABOUT US
The Community Town Team got together in July 2021 and began working with local leaders who have the resources and opportunities to make change happen.
By forming this strong partnership we will ensure that the changes and improvements to the town are sustainable and for the benefit of the whole community.
​
In this way the visions can become realities.
​
The Town's community working in this way ensures that, as a collective effort, there will be sustainable growth that will facilitate changes in consumer habits, for both the present generations in Chippenham and those still to come.
This approach further ensures that everything is relative to both what has gone before and to present conditions - where we continue to learn what is possible and what is achievable. At times the visions may not fully materialise, but by looking toward the positives from the perspective of time and place we can manage both the expectations and the outcomes more realistically.
