You may only have just moved here or you may have been born and bred here, but how well do you know Westbury?

Are you observant or do you go around town in a dream or glued to your mobile phone or maybe you drive everywhere and never walk?

John Prince of All Saints’ Church said, “I challenge you to walk around town this summer and really take notice of what you pass. This quiz has over 100 pictures of things you can see as you go, they are all taken from publicly accessible places. Some are easy, some a little more obscure and, I hope, some that will be very challenging.

“Westbury is a wonderful town with a host of interesting things to see.”

You have until Friday 6 September to return your completed sheets. The answers will be revealed at a cheese & wine evening on Friday 20th September at the Parish Hall.

Quiz sheets are available from the team office, Church Lane or call 01373 822949. Entry fee is £3, and proceeds are to help the upkeep of All Saints’ Church.

Retailers sell knife and alcohol to under-16s in test operation

Volunteers are being encouraged to come forward and take on an important role helping to support children in care. National research by the Children’s Rights Director for England shows that many children in care would like to have the support of an independent adult in their lives; someone who could spend quality time with them, listen to their day-to-day concerns and take a special interest in their lives. Wiltshire Council’s independent visitor scheme is looking to train more Independent Visitors to take on this valuable role; volunteers are needed who can communicate well with young people, share their interests and have some regular time to spare. More than 80 young people have received support from the Wiltshire scheme since it first started in 2000 and many continue to be involved with the scheme long term. The council is keen to broaden the range of volunteers it has available to match with young people. Men in particular are asked to come forward and become independent visitors for teenage boys in care who would like a male role model. The scheme is also particularly looking for volunteers in the north, west and centre of the county, and volunteers who have experience in supporting with children with additional needs. Laura Mayes, Wiltshire Council cabinet member for children’s services said, “ Young people in care can often feel vulnerable and isolated, so this volunteering role will be vital in ensuring they have much- needed support, encouragement and consistency at such an important time in their life.” One young person who has been matched with their independent visitor for eight years said, “She’s kind, friendly and a great listener. She can cheer me up any time; having an IV means that you have someone to talk to and a friend that you can keep even after you’ve left the social service. She is really nice, a good listener when I need to rant and she is just a very nice person, one of those people you can always get on with and she always thinks of good things to do. Having an IV is just awesome.” For more details contact the Sheila Lupton on 01225 713934, email sheila.lupton @ wiltshire.gov.uk or visit www.wiltshire.gov.uk/ independent visitorscheme
