Good Advice

Tips for preparing for a power cut during storms.

1. If you voted in May 2024 you will know our village hut was not a polling station. The Parish Council tried to get this reviewed but the next opportunity will be the 2028/9 election.
2. Tisbury Library offers a warm welcome to all, offering: a free warm space to sit. Basic energy advice and referrals to the energy advisors at “Warm and Safe Wiltshire”. Signposting to community partners that can support you through the rising cost of living. For more information, visit: www.wiltshire.gov.uk/cost-of-living.

Tisbury Library, The Nadder Centre, Weaveland Road, Tisbury SP3 6HJ.

Tel. 01722 434205 or email: library enquiries@wiltshire.gov.uk

3. Prepare for possible power cuts, note SSEN run the network not your electricity supplier:

Save the emergency power cut number - '105' - to your phone to report any loss of supply or damage to the electricity network
Visiting SSEN's Power Track Website to give you details of power cuts . You can also report power cuts and network damage through the Power Track app
Going to SSEN's website where there is a wealth of advice and information on how to deal with a power cut, or to chat live to one of SSEN's advisors via its webchat service.
Questions, contact email: stakeholder.engagement@sse.com
If you lose power for a distribution system fault for more than 12 hours SSEN will provide compensation. More than 24 hours compensation is automatic.

British Heart Foundation Learn CPR go to: https://www.bhf.org.uk/how-you-can-help/how-to-save-a-life/how-to-do-cpr/learn-cpr-in-15-minutes
CPR is an emergency lifesaving procedure, performed when the heart stops beating. Each year over 30,000 people have an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in the UK, with less than one in ten surviving - giving CPR and using a defibrillator can more than double someone’s chance of survival.

Forthcoming events

The Old Fonthill Abbey Grounds were open two Sundays in May 2025.

This was a very successful event in aid of Cure Parkinson’s and local charities (including our Church and Village Hut). Thanks to all who helped and please keep 3rd of May or 17th May free to help again in 2026!

Parish Council Meetings in the Village Hut continue at 7pm on the first Monday of each month, unless a change is published on the village notice board.

Parish FAQs

Ticks can be active all year round, but they are most active in the months April to July, and sometimes later in the autumn.
Don't let ticks stop you from enjoying the outdoors but reduce the chance of acquiring a tick bite by:
1. Using a repellent that prevents ticks
2.   Wearing long sleeves and long trousers to reduce direct skin exposure
3.   Keep to clearly defined paths and avoid brushing against vegetation
4.   Regularly check for ticks and brush off any you find immediately
5.   When you’re back indoors, check for any ticks on you, your children and pets
6. If you find a tick, remove it as soon as possible with a removal device
Find out more, including what to do if you're bitten
