🛍 Wilton Pantry Opens: Tuesday 17 November 🛍

Wilton Pantry will be opening its doors at Wilton Community Centre on 17 November at 10am.

The Pantry will provide surplus and subsidised food through a points-based system, alongside a warm space, a chatty café and practical advice for people in Wilton.

Unlike traditional emergency foodbanks, the pantry will operate like a small shop, allowing members to choose their own food and household items.

Many members are working families who do not meet the threshold for other support, including NHS staff, teachers, social workers, and military households.

In addition to the pantry, the centre will also offer a Chatty Café and Warm Space to help reduce loneliness and social isolation, particularly during the winter months.

Head down the the Community Centre in two weeks time for more information or to become a member.

💷 Budget Consultation 💷

Have Your Say on Wilton Town Council’s Budget for 2027/28!

Each year, Wilton Town Council sets a budget to ensure it can continue delivering services, maintaining community assets, supporting local projects, and investing in improvements that benefit the town. As we begin planning for the 2027/28 financial year, we want to hear from the people who know Wilton best, our residents.

The draft budget outlines how public funds could be allocated across a range of services and priorities. Before any decisions are finalised, we are inviting residents to share their views.

There are several ways to get involved. You can attend one of our drop-in consultation sessions, where councillors and officers will be available to answer questions and discuss the draft budget, or you can submit your comments and feedback online.

Your views are important and will help inform the Council’s decision-making process as we set a budget that reflects the needs and aspirations of our community.
