Spotlight On: Melksham Community Transport.

Residents in Melksham who struggle to get out can benefit from the support of Melksham Area Community Transport, a local charity that transports passengers to day centres, shopping outlets and social events. The organisation, formerly known as the Melksham Council of Community Service (MCCS), was founded by a group of people who had realised there were many older people in Melksham who were often unable to get out due to a lack of easily accessible transport.

A charity was set up and a small minibus was acquired to provide days out and shopping trips. The service has grown over the years and now the charity has five buses and provides transport for over 33,000 passengers a year, transporting disabled and elderly people to day centres, shopping outlets and social events; organising day trips for local residents to popular destinations and carrying children from outlying isolated villages to a local school.

Memorial plaque and tree unveiling ceremony honours local stalwart

A much-loved Melksham resident, Jean Harris, has been honoured with a memorial plaque and the planting of a rare Wiltshire dognose apple tree at the Queen Mary Garden.

Jean, who died last April, was town clerk and the driving force behind some of Melksham’s most cherished events, including the annual Christmas Fair and the town’s entry into the Britain in Bloom competitions.

Friends, relatives and council members gathered in the garden, that sits near King George V Playing Field, on Saturday 27th April, for a special ceremony that unveiled the plaque and the tree that has been planted in Jean’s memory.
