Welcome to our Village Website.  Our parish covers four villages (albeit one, Imber has no residents). 

Salisbury, Bath, Shaftesbury, Chippenham (Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre located), Stonehenge and Avebury are all easily accessible.  The famous White Horse figures, cut into the hillsides exposing the chalk beneath, provide examples of the importance to Wiltshire of its wonderful landscape and parts of Wiltshire are designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. 

The Parish Council are keen to promote our villages.  Are you a keen landscape photographer?  Photos must be of our villages.  Contact  admin@heytesburyparish.co.uk  or one of the Parish Councillors

NEWS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE / HYPO - CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS

All you 12 - 16 year olds - keep looking out for the lastest posters about the next "The Night Club Bluez 'n' Zuz" Friday night activity.  This is where the police and Kingdown school organise free supervised transport from the villages to a Warminster venue.  

Some of you might recall that a young people's group (HYPO) was formed about three years ago after a community planning consultation was undertaken by the Parish Council.  The group (members were young people from Heytesbury, Knook and Tytherington) was really successful and helped raise funds for the upgrading of the schoolfield play area, as well as enjoying various activities and putting on local musical performances.  

Although the former group has "lapsed" - i.e. have grown up, left village, etc. etc., the council would like to revive the group and I would suggest that anyone who is interested in joining and/or helping restart HYPO (i.e. both young people as well as parents who are interested in supporting the group) contact me so that we can arrange an initial informal meeting.  As this is a community group, adult and parental support would be most appreciated. 

If you are interested in any of the above activities, please contact a Parish Councillor [Parish Council]
