Melksham Forum  • Do you live in Melksham? • Do you work in the town, or nearby? • Do you shop here, or visit from time to time - on business, to see friends and relatives, or because you just like the place? • Do you travel through, or past, and wonder what we have to offer? • Are you thinking of visiting us?  If you can answer "yes" to any of these questions, please visit the new Melksham Forum. Sponsored by the Melksham Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the forum is open to anyone who has an interest in the town. Whether you live here, work here, or shop here, or perhaps all three, you'll be welcome. And if you're considering moving to the area, or have lived in Melksham or nearby in the past - perhaps being based at RAF Melksham, for example, you're also welcome to sign up, tell us about the past, and ask us about Melksham and the future here. The forum is open for visitors to Melksham too - if you're visiting family, or a business, or just touring the area, pop in and see us. The Forum *is* new - so please register when you visit us and help us start to provide a really useful local service. You'll find thriving forums in other neighboring towns, but there's a been a gap in Melksham that this forum is intended to fill. When you register, you'll be asked to choose a user name and a password to secure your account. You'll be able to change the name that's applied to your posts in public from that user name, later on, if you want to do so. You may also be asked to retype some letters as a security check. Submit your request and within a few hours we'll confirm your account ... actually, it can often be within a few minutes, but the validation is a manual process, so we can't promise it will be 'lightning quick'. Melksham, Wiltshire is a town of around 22,000 people situated about 100 miles to the west of London, on the Bristol River Avon. It boasts a wide variety of local industries - both old and new, manufacturing, service and distribution, physical and online. The town boats over 200 retail businesses welcoming walk-in trade, and many specialists are located here too, making Melksham very much a destination for select visitors from all over the world. The town has been growing, and is expected to continue to grow rapidly, based on government plans and encouraged by The County, the Town Council and others. With growth come the issues of growth - where extra employment should be located to, whether recreational and shopping facilities should be increased, or if the new inhabitants should be encouraged to travel for their services, and how the existing infrastructure an 'pinch points' such as car parks can continue to serve the current and be improved to server the new - or whether we should rip much of the town down, and start afresh.(written 2009-11-01, updated 2010-11-03) Associated topics are indexed under Z402 - Melksham Chamber of Commerce and Industry[4097] Melksham Chamber of Commerce - Report for AGM, 21st May 2013 - (2013-05-21) [4046] Over a hundred welcoming businesses - Melksham Town Centre - (2013-03-17) [4041] Report on the last year - Melksham Chamber of Commerce and Industry for Melksham Without Parish Council - (2013-03-11) [4014] Costa Coffee in Melksham - is it a good idea? - (2013-02-22) [4002] Images of Melksham you havent seen before - (2013-02-13) [3987] Melksham Chamber of Commerce - join us in our future - (2013-01-21) [3948] Quiet little town?

Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
