Warminster Town Council continues to work with the Warminster Business Network and others to improve the town centre and make Warminster a place to be proud of.
The aim is for the town to maximise the benefits of the new independent market days, supporting these events and ensuring they grow and become even more successful in the future.

Warminster Town Council is undertaking a number of initiatives to improve the vibrancy and appeal of the town centre:
- Smartening-up the town centre – rubbish bins, fingerpost signs and street signs are being repaired and repainted
- Cleaning-up the streets – the team remain busy removing weeds and litter
- Promoting local tourism – themed town trails on the Explore Wiltshire App have been developed and promoted, with prizes that encourage people to visit the town centre
- The seasonal return of hanging baskets
- Steps to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour
- Encouraging businesses to take part in a ‘Tidy up, Smarten Up’ campaign, to enhance the look of their premises
- Written to owners of empty building to encourage them back into use
The town council has recently hand delivered a newsletter update to all businesses in the town centre to help them keep in touch and engage in the process. This can be found/downloaded on the town council website.
Cllr Jack Jones said:
I warmly welcome these initiatives and hope we will build some real momentum behind a positive vision for the town centre.”
