A group of Kingdown School students are working with members of the Warminster Town Council Grounds Team as part of a new initiative.
The Warminster-based students are working with the team weekly, learning new skills as well as giving back to the local community.
The partnership is set to run all year round with students working on various projects within the Lake Pleasure Grounds, Grovelands, The Warminster Community Orchard and other public spaces in the town.

“The Warminster Town Council Grounds Team is very proud to look after Warminster and takes pride in maintaining spaces for the whole town to enjoy. We look forward to sharing this passion, as well as teaching and learning from the local students.”
Kingdown School, Woodcock Road, Warminster, BA12 9DR is a mixed secondary school and sixth form for students aged 11 to 18.
A Kingdown School spokesperson added: “We are so pleased to get our young people out into the community and working on essential local projects.
“They have been so enthusiastic about the work they have been doing and keen to get stuck in and give back to Warminster. We are looking forward to working more closely with the town parks service and collaborating on more projects in the future.”
Warminster Town Council recently further cemented its commitment to working with the local younger population following a renewed agreement with Westbury and Warminster Youth Club to provide youth outreach workers in the town for four days a week.
