  • Melksham woman completes 60-mile challenge in memory of friend A Melksham woman has completed a 60-mile charity challenge in her wheelchair, raising more than £1,000 for the mental health charity Samaritans in memory of a close friend. Throughout April, Chloe Orr completed up to three miles a day around Melksham in her wheelchair with her dog Moni, taking on the charity’s ‘Walk 60 Miles with your Dog in April’ challenge in her own way after her friend Damian died by suicide last year. After being involved in a car accident in 2015, Chloe sustained a spinal cord injury and is a full-time wheelchair user. She also lives with fibromyalgia and said the daily distances were a major physical challenge. She said, “Every day I was really tired and really sore and in the mornings, I would wake up and be really stiff. It can be hard going out in a wheelchair because in Bowerhill in particular you don’t get many dropped curbs.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Tony Christie performs in Melksham on farewell tour Legendary crooner Tony Christie delighted audiences at Melksham Assembly Hall recently, performing as part of his UK tour, The Great Farewell. He played an intimate acoustic show to 150 people, rounding off with the iconic hit ‘(Is This the Way) to Amarillo’ and the poignant ‘Thank You for Being a Friend’ – a track released with Sting to raise money for Music for Dementia, an illness Tony lives with. Semington resident Jean Payne, who attended the show, said she felt ‘very lucky’ to have been able to see Tony Christie perform. She said, “Tony Christie completely wowed the audience with his almost non-stop performance and showed that he still has the power in his amazing voice."

  • Park yoga returns with over 60 people Free weekly yoga sessions have returned to Melksham’s park this month, with over 60 people rolling out their mats for the first class on Sunday 3rd May. Park Yoga will be held every Sunday in King George V Park (KGV) until 13th September. Instructor Hannah Blueitt said, “It is brilliant to be able to welcome people back to Park Yoga this year. The first session saw us packed with over 60 attendees. “It was lovely to see returning friends alongside new members joining the Park Yoga movement. Everyone is welcome on a Sunday morning in KGV at 9.30am.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Residents conquer London Landmarks run for cancer charity Melksham residents took on the London Landmarks Half Marathon recently, raising more than £800 for a cancer charity. Christina Street, Christopher Street and Sadie Bosworth completed the 13.1-mile challenge last month to raise funds for Young Lives vs Cancer, the only UK charity with specialist social workers who provide tailored support to children and young people with cancer and their families. Christina, who has completed four half marathons, said, “We have always raised money for that charity. My friend’s son had acute lymphoblastic leukaemia when they were two years old. He is 13 now and is in remission but the support the charity has given the family is amazing. He was in Bristol Children’s Hospital for so long and they didn’t have to pay a thing for accommodation; all paid for by the charity. “My husband and I raised over the £350 each that the charity wanted us to raise, and we got over and above that just through social media posts.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
  • Free bat walks hosted by local volunteer Free bat walks will be held over two evenings this month, to help people learn about bats and support local wildlife. The walks are being led by local resident Robert Dickenson, a volunteer at Conigre Mead Nature Reserve, on Saturday 9th May at 8.30pm and Friday 15th May at 8.45pm starting from the Market Place. The 30-minute walks will take in the Campus, Conigre Mead Nature Reserve and the riverside, finishing at the town bridge. A digital bat detector will be used during the walks. Robert said bats are “silent, agile and incredibly valuable” and play an important role in controlling insect populations. In Melksham, species likely to be seen include common pipistrelles, Daubenton’s bats and brown long-eared bats. Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Community thanked for ‘overwhelming’ support at football fundraiser The family of a Melksham teenager has thanked the community for their ‘overwhelming’ support at their annual football fundraiser in his memory. The family of Ben Smith, who died after being assaulted on a night out in Bath in 2021, hosted their fourth annual football fundraiser at Melksham Town Football Club on Sunday 3rd May. The day included a friendly football match between The Bee’s Knees, Ben’s former football team, and his brother’s team, The Fat Heads. Former Liverpool player Ray Houghton was also in attendance and signed autographs. There was also post-match entertainment from The Singing Herdsman, along with refreshments, a raffle and an auction. Ben’s mum Rachel said, “It’s lovely for people to come from Melksham to support our son’s event and remember him and how he passed, and to see everybody together having fun. The weather’s good this year, which is another plus point. It’s just overwhelming to see so many people who come to spend time for us and our son.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.

  • Melksham Town seal dramatic survival with final day win Melksham Town completed a remarkable Great Escape to secure their survival in the Southern League on a dramatic final day of the season. Second-half goals from Elliot Haffenden (68 minutes) and Ralph Graham (89 minutes) earned a crucial 2-0 victory at Falmouth on Saturday 25th April, enough to keep Town two points clear of the relegation zone despite Willand Rovers’ 3-0 win over bottom side Tavistock. It caps a stunning turnaround for Town under returning manager Kieran Baggs, who took charge last month with Town second from bottom, having won just once in ten games. Since then, Kieran has guided his side to five wins and two draws from nine matches, including three straight victories to end the season and complete their survival mission.

  • Town tribute marks Sir David Attenborough’s 100th birthday Melksham will celebrate Sir David Attenborough’s 100th birthday with a special tribute in the Market Place. Two banners made by Melksham Flag Group, displaying an image of David Attenborough, have been draped from the town hall. Butterflies will also be projected onto the facade of the building to celebrate his birthday on 8th May. The recently installed tree planters in the Market Place will be decorated with bunting made by local children at a recent bunting-making event. Each flag has also been signed by the children who made them. Terri Welch from Melksham’s Flag Group said, “The Flag Team and the Town Council have worked on a special tribute to this most loved presenter, to mark this milestone and to remind people of his love of nature and as a tribute to the wonderful films that have been made.” Read more on our website, the link is in our bio.
