πΆββοΈ Midnight Walk: Next Saturday πΆββοΈ
Next Saturday, the Mayor of Wilton, Cllr Chris Harrison, will be taking part in the Midnight Walk for Salisbury Hospice.
The Hospice`s Sponsor a Nurse campaign is the Mayor`s Charity of the Year for this Mayoral year.
Last year, the Hospice had over 800 interactions with Wilton residents. The hospice needs over Β£4 million each year to run all itβs services and it costs Β£119 per day for each registered nurse.
The Mayor will be completing the walk in his robes and Chain of Office, and will be joined by the Deputy Mayor, Cllr Charlotte Blackman.
You can sponsor them, or sign-up to walk with them, by visiting

πͺ¦ Cemetery Improvements Update πͺ¦
Over the last few weeks, the Garden of Remembrance at the Shaftesbury Rd Cemetery has been having some improvements.
Landscaping works, including levelling the area using soil from our spoil heap have now been completed, surrounding hedges and trees have been pruned and the area reseeded with grass seed.
A new footpath has been installed across the Garden, using chippings from the tree and hedge works, and the new boundary fence installed.
We are in the process of selecting a contractor to provide replacement iron railings and a new gate to the garden.
Works on the cemetery itself, including the pathway improvements and arboricultural works are now underway and are expected to be completed over the coming weeks.
