Have your say on the future of Melksham

Melksham Town Council is inviting all residents to help shape the town’s future through the creation of a brand-new Corporate Plan – and they want your ideas.

The plan, which will guide the council’s priorities over the coming years, is being developed with the theme ‘Melksham: Big Heart, Small Town, Endless Possibilities’.

The council are conducting a Community Survey which is available to complete online, at Melksham Town Hall or during one of the council’s upcoming community engagement sessions.

“We want to hear your thoughts, ideas, and feedback,” said Hayley Bell, Chief Executive Officer. “Whether you live, work or visit Melksham, your voice matters.

“This survey is a vital opportunity to share thoughts, ideas, and aspirations for our town. Our community will be at the heart of everything we do. We will be a council that truly listens, committed to building a place where people are proud to live, work and visit. Your voice helps shape the future, and together we can create a town of endless possibilities.”

The survey is available online at: forms.office.com/e/GRT1qCGD3h, at Melksham Town Hall, or at any of the upcoming community engagement sessions listed below:

Town Hall Drop-ins – Mondays 15th and 22nd September, 4pm to 7pm
