An exciting Roarminster Loyalty Card with a top prize of a ยฃ500 voucher (to spend in participating businesses in the town) will join the exciting dinosaur themed events scheduled this summer in Warminster.

Warminster Town Council has funded a fun dinosaur trail with the town set to be transformed from Warminster to Roarminster: Warminster's Dinosaur Trail - with the installation of five impressive dinosaur models from Saturday 11th July until Saturday 5th September.

The dinosaur-themed loyalty card initiative run by Warminster Business Network (WBN), will launch prior to Roarminster and is designed to encourage residents and visitors to spend local with repeat visits to the town.

Spend ยฃ10 with a participating business, receive a stamp, collect 10 stamps and be in with a chance of winning a ยฃ500 voucher (terms and conditions apply). Participating businesses will be announced shortly.

The WBN is continuing to work with local businesses, restaurants, pubs and cafes to help increase exposure and benefit all during and after the dinosaur trail, with further details set to be announced.

Matt Towl, Chair of WBN, explained: โ€œThe Roarminster Loyalty Card is a great example of what can be achieved when local businesses and the town council work together.

โ€œBy encouraging residents and visitors to spend locally and experience the full range of businesses that make Warminster unique, we're helping to keep more spending in the town, support local enterprises and create reasons for people to come back and visit again.

"The beauty of the scheme is its simplicity. Residents and visitors are already spending money in Warminster every day, and this is a fun way of rewarding them for doing so locally.

โ€œSpend ยฃ10 with a participating business, collect your stamps and you'll be in with a chance of winning, while helping to support the diverse businesses that make our town special."

Roarminster will take over the town with shop windows decorated, plenty of photo opportunities and a selection of dinosaur books available to borrow at Warminster Library (Three Horseshoes Walk, Warminster, BA12 9BT).

Visitors and residents will be encouraged to explore the town, find and learn about the different dinosaurs, enter a prize draw and take part in fun activities throughout the summer holidays.

Cllr Jack Jones, Mayor of Warminster added: โ€œRoarminster will transform the town into a dinosaur-themed adventure throughout the summer. From dinosaur trails and competitions to exhibitions, workshops, lectures and family activities, there will be something for all ages to enjoy.

โ€œIt is exactly the kind of imaginative, community-focused event that helps create lasting memories while encouraging people to explore everything Warminster has to offer.

โ€œI am delighted to see the proposed Roarminster Loyalty Card scheme being brought forward by the Warminster Business Network.

โ€œThe idea is simple but effective โ€“ encouraging residents and visitors to support local businesses, discover new shops and venues, and keep more spending within our local economy.

"It is a great example of how community events can benefit not only families and visitors but also the businesses that are at the heart of our town.โ€

The event trail will officially launch at a brand-new festival: Warminster YouthFest held in the Lake Pleasure Grounds on Saturday 11th July, with the dinosaur models remaining in the town until Saturday 5th September. The dinosaur trail route will be fully covered by Warminster CCTV.

Warminster Town Council members unanimously supported the Warminster Business Network and their Roarminster Loyalty Card proposal at the Town Development Committee on Monday 1st June 2026.

The annual tradition of local schoolchildren planting flowers in the Lake Pleasure Grounds returned on Friday 5th June.

Warminster Town Council has invited local schoolchildren to plant in the park since the popular initiative was introduced in 2016.

The town council pays for the plants and encourages local children to get involved in shaping the Lake Pleasure Grounds, taking pride in the community asset.

Children from Barney Lodge Nursery, New Close School Warminster and St Georgeโ€™s Catholic Primary School were the first to fill flower beds with creative designs โ€“ helping to brighten up the park.

A Warminster Town Council spokesperson said: โ€œThe Lake Pleasure Grounds is constantly evolving but we are delighted to continue this wonderful initiative working with local schools to plant flowers around the park.

โ€œWe take great pride in maintaining our much-loved community asset and working with the next generation.โ€

Schoolchildren from Warminster will continue planting in the Lake Pleasure Grounds next week.

The Mayor of Warminster, Cllr Jack Jones, remains committed to keeping Warminster tidy as he looks to expand local litter picks and support a group of local volunteers.

Jack continues in his role as Warminster Town Council Litter Pick Champion following a decision at the Town Development Committee on Monday 1st June 2026.

Jack regularly supports community clean-ups, champions local environmental campaigns, and works closely with local groups and schools. He has praised the community spirit of the town as he currently supports 42 volunteers who tackle litter around various areas in Warminster.

Cllr Jones explained: โ€œKeeping Warminster clean and tidy is something Iโ€™m incredibly passionate about, and Iโ€™m proud to continue serving as the townโ€™s Litter Pick Champion.

โ€œWe now have 42 registered volunteer litter pickers who take responsibility for their own areas across Warminster, which is a fantastic example of community spirit in action.

โ€œTogether, we are making a real difference to the appearance of our town and helping to protect our local environment.

โ€œFollowing the success of our Great British Spring Clean event earlier this year, we are currently looking at organising another community litter pick on a Sunday during the summer months.

โ€œIt will be a great opportunity for residents, families, community groups and local organisations to come together and make a positive impact.

โ€œWarminster is a town we can all be proud of, and I would encourage anyone interested in getting involved to join us. Every piece of litter picked up makes a difference.โ€

Warminster is blooming once again after the Warminster Town Council Grounds Team installed hanging baskets around the town.

The popular hanging baskets have added โ€œso much colour and vibrancyโ€ to the local area including the High Street, Market Place, George Street, Weymouth Street, East Street, Station Road and in the Lake Pleasure Grounds.

The town council has installed more than 80 hanging baskets โ€“ as it prepares for vibrant town centre events including the Warminster Independent Summer Market 2026 and Roarminster: Warminster's Dinosaur Trail from Saturday 11th July.

Cllr Jack Jones, Mayor of Warminster said: โ€œThe hanging baskets add so much colour and vibrancy to our town centre and help create a warm and welcoming environment for residents, visitors and businesses.

โ€œSmall touches like these can make a big difference to how people feel about a place, and they play an important role in showcasing civic pride and making Warminster an attractive place to live, work and visit.

โ€œI would like to thank everyone involved in helping keep our town looking its best throughout the year.โ€

The award of a grant comes with the proviso that a representative should provide a report to the Annual Town Meeting on how the money has been used.

If you would like to apply for a grant on behalf of your organisation, download the application pack here.

Packs can also be emailed to you via [email protected] or collect an application pack in person from Warminster Civic Centre, Sambourne Road, Warminster BA12 8LB. The council can assist in making sure the application is completed fully and answer any queries.

Councillor Mark Carter, chair of the Finance and Audit Committee previously said: โ€œThese grants are part of our ongoing commitment to support the voluntary sector and the community spirit that make Warminster such a friendly place to live in.

โ€œI urge any organisation that supports the community to apply for a grant if it will help to deliver more for local residents.โ€

The initial applications for 2026 will be heard at the Finance and Audit Committee meeting scheduled for Monday 29th June 2026. Any money unallocated may be distributed at the 1st September meeting.

Wildflowers have been planted around the lake in Warminster Lake Pleasure Grounds (Weymouth Street, Warminster, BA12 9NP) to enhance biodiversity, improve health lake, and reduce maintenance impacts.

A Warminster Town Council spokesperson explained: โ€œGrass cutting along the lake perimeter can result in clippings entering the water, which can negatively impact water quality and disturb wildlife.

โ€œIntroducing wildflower strips provides a low-maintenance, sustainable solution that benefits both the environment and the community.โ€

According to Wiltshire Wildlife, leaving a buffer of a couple of metres will help prevent cuttings from entering the water and provide additional habitat diversity and shade along the margin.

Cllr Stephen Kirkwood added: โ€œIt's a very good idea because it not only promotes wildlife, but biodiversity - which we need. I think it'll encourage more people to be conscious of the environment within the park, and it is relatively easy idea to implement.โ€

Members resolved to approve the proposal to instal a 2-meter-wide wildflower sections at meeting of the Parks and Estate Committee.
