Congratulations, and good luck to Bradford on Avon Town Council, who are hoping to step in and save the vital youth services within the town, that have been so cruelly axed by Wiltshire Council.

I hope and pray that they can secure the former youth building in Frome Road, which is a vital community asset.

Having said that I have my doubts, Wiltshire Council have over 70 such buildings on the market, right the way across the county, this includes youth clubs, schools, playing fields – the list goes on. The reason for this is to pay for the millions of pounds spent on County Hall, and offices in Salisbury and Chippenham.

Work that the public never had a say in and never wanted.

Councillor Terry Chivers, Independent Melksham Without North, Eden Grove, Whitley, Melksham.
