Wiltshire.gov.uk update
COVID‐19 — Regional testing sites
Drive‐through coronavirus testing facilities are now open at the Beehive Park & Ride, Salisbury and the Wroughton Park & Ride, Swindon as part of the Government's UK‐wide work to increase testing.
Anyone experiencing a new, continuous cough, a high temperature, or a loss of or change in their normal sense of smell or taste, can book an appointment on the NHS website to be tested for whether they currently have coronavirus. Essential workers can book a test on the GOV.UK Essential Worker Self‐Referral Portal.
The testing facilities in Salisbury and Swindon, which are being piloted for the first few days of operation, are operated in partnership with Sodexo and will offer assisted and self‐administered tests. Those tested will receive their results within a few days.
In addition to the regional test sites, 116 mobile testing units operated by the Armed Forces travel around the UK to further increase access to coronavirus testing. They respond to need, travelling to test at sites including care homes, police stations and prisons. New units are being brought into operation each day.
The Government has also set up a home‐testing service, supported by Amazon's logistics network and other commercial partners. Home test kits can be delivered to your door so you can test yourself and your family without leaving the house.
To book a test:
Visit the NHS test booking website: nhs.uk
NHS online services
The NHS has created a ‘Health at Home’ campaign which signposts the public to the information they need to contact their GP, order repeat prescriptions, manage their wellbeing and existing conditions, by accessing online services.
Further information can be found at: www.nhs.uk/health-at-home
Corsley Parish Council
There have been no online/email PC meetings in the past month but one or two routine administrative matters have been dealt with and two planning applications received.
New planning applications
20/03523/FUL & 20/0404/LBC
Proposed change use of office suite to studio space and estate worker's flat at Corsley House, Deep Lane.
This application proposes conversion and change of use of part of an existing single storey outbuilding, separate from the main house. The external appearance of the building would be unchanged, with three existing access stable type doors fixed shut. The supporting documents for both applications are identical.
The deadline for comments is 19th June and the documents are available on the Wiltshire planning website. Notice of these two applications has been placed on the two Village noticeboards and public comments are invited, to be forwarded to the PC Clerk or placed directly on the Wiltshire Planning website. The PC will collate it own comments through email exchange.
Footpaths
It is very evident that the excellent network of public footpaths and bridleways in and around Corsley have been very well used and enjoyed during the weeks of COVID-19 lockdown. The sunny weather has allowed unprecedented, almost continuous, access and the annual springtime burst of flowering and greening of trees, hedges and fields has been a wonderful antidote to the strictures of lockdown.Gill Parkinson, the PC Footpaths representative, has asked that I raise a couple of issues which are both worth bearing in mind when enjoying the local footpaths.
The first is that of respect, both to the landowners through whose properties the paths pass and to others using the paths during this period of social distancing. Most paths are easily followed over stiles and routes marked by the passage of many feet, others are less so and often unofficial routes are created. The latter are tolerated and we are very lucky to have very wide access the Longleat woods around Corsley along routes which are certainly not public rights of way. Such access should not be taken for granted and the freedom not abused. It is also key to this tolerance that livestock, crops and field boundaries are not disturbed or damaged. Unruly dogs off the lead are a particular nightmare for farmers.
The second issue also relates to dogs. Poo bags are regarded as a necessary adjunct to dog walking nowadays and have their place where there is heavy human traffic and habitation, particularly where children play. However, there seems to be a widespread belief that used bags can be left hanging on stiles, hedges, banks, etc. Please take them home to dispose of them.
A362 road safety improvements at the Heath
The details of this project were included in last moths brief and we have now received notice that the current plan is for the work to start on 25th June, with an expected duration of two weeks. The precise details of interruptions to access and road closure have not yet been published but will be put on The Bridge website as soon as it's known
Dates of next meetings (as currently planned)
Quarterly Meeting —7th September (pending)
Quarterly Meeting —7th December
(all meetings begin at 7.30pm in the Lower Room at Corsley Reading Room)

Asda Volunteer Shopping Card
Making tough times a little bit easier...
Not being able to get to the shops for your essentials is hard. Especially in the current situation. Asda have created the Volunteer Shopping Card, the cashless ‐ and less stressful ‐ way for people to help get the shopping in.
Ideal for those who might be self‐isolating, older or medically vulnerable, the Volunteer Shopping Card provides a contactless, safe and secure way to allow others to shop for them.
If you have to stay at home, the Volunteer Shopping Card can be used to:
- buy online
- send to your volunteer or print and leave for them in a safe place
- stay secure ‐ no bank or credit card details are exchanged
- be safer as you're not handing over cash
- can be topped with extra funds online
If you're volunteering the Volunteer Shopping Card is ideal because:
- you're not exchanging cash
- you're still able to help, whilst minimising risk for you both
- you don't need to know the person's bank or credit card details
- you can use the card contactlessly in‐store using a barcode
How it works:
- The Volunteer Shopping Card can be bought easily online
- It can then be emailed to the volunteer or printed out and left in a safe place for the volunteer to pick up
- The volunteer then shops using the card, makes the payment using the barcode in store, and leaves the shopping in a safe place

Especially to Alice Helliar, Bryan Garwood, Di Britten, Johanna Trickett, Rachel Hanney, Rupert Tolson and Trevor Scott.
A big thank you to John and Joanna Hume from The Cross Keys who have managed to put together some wonderful hampers and already provided residents of Corsley and Chapmanslade with some essential items. Suppliers have proved difficult to source in these uncertain times but so far so good and we have a steady supply in place.
The Cross Keys HUB is also open to residents of Chapmanslade to order food, toiletries and essentials. Like us, they have a growing support network of over 30 volunteers who can collect direct from the hub and deliver to those in need.
The hub is running completely contactless. Orders to be taken and paid for over the phone; a nominated volunteer will collect your order and deliver to your doorstep without any need for contact. Stock and availability is subject to change daily. Please call 832406 to place an order!
We are also offering a prescription collection service. Call the Cross Keys HUB and they will assign a volunteer to collect and deliver to your doorstep, again, contactless.
We have been recognised by Wiltshire Council COVID Support Hub and will be working alongside them to ensure all guidelines are followed. We are currently awaiting an update from offering our established group of volunteers and store for supplies for our most vulnerable members of the community but expect a food drop for the vulnerable imminently.
We have also been on the BBC News! Well done to Rupert Tolson for being our spokesman and sharing all our wonderful efforts.
If you are able to help deliver food, pick up prescriptions, be a ‘buddy’ for a nearby neighbour or provide essential IT support, please get in touch ASAP and fill out the form that can be found by clicking this link

Wiltshire Council recycling
has changed!
Especially to Alice Helliar, Bryan Garwood, Di Britten, Johanna Trickett, Rachel Hanney, Rupert Tolson and Trevor Scott.
A big thank you to John and Joanna Hume from The Cross Keys who have managed to put together some wonderful hampers and already provided residents of Corsley and Chapmanslade with some essential items. Suppliers have proved difficult to source in these uncertain times but so far so good and we have a steady supply in place.
The Cross Keys HUB is also open to residents of Chapmanslade to order food, toiletries and essentials. Like us, they have a growing support network of over 30 volunteers who can collect direct from the hub and deliver to those in need.
The hub is running completely contactless. Orders to be taken and paid for over the phone; a nominated volunteer will collect your order and deliver to your doorstep without any need for contact. Stock and availability is subject to change daily. Please call 832406 to place an order!
We are also offering a prescription collection service. Call the Cross Keys HUB and they will assign a volunteer to collect and deliver to your doorstep, again, contactless.
We have been recognised by Wiltshire Council COVID Support Hub and will be working alongside them to ensure all guidelines are followed. We are currently awaiting an update from offering our established group of volunteers and store for supplies for our most vulnerable members of the community but expect a food drop for the vulnerable imminently.
We have also been on the BBC News! Well done to Rupert Tolson for being our spokesman and sharing all our wonderful efforts.
If you are able to help deliver food, pick up prescriptions, be a ‘buddy’ for a nearby neighbour or provide essential IT support, please get in touch ASAP and fill out the form that can be found by clicking this link
A reminder that if you are experiencing any symptoms or need medical guidance, to contact 111 or 999 in an emergency.

Wiltshire Council recycling
has changed!
What can go in my black box?
Glass bottles, jars and textiles should go in the black box. Bottle and jar lids can be left on, and clean and dry textiles (clothes, pairs of shoes, curtains, sheets and blankets) should be bagged, tied and put in the black box. Please do not place textiles in black refuse sack. Wet or dirty textiles can't be collected.
What can go in my blue-lidded bin?
Plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays, cartons, cans, aerosols, foil, paper and carboard into your blue-lidded bin. Unfortunately, we can't collect black plastic and plastic films. To make more space and avoid contamination, please wash and squash your recycling and ensure all containers are empty and clean. Find out more here: http://www.wiltshire.gov.uk/recycling.
