HIGH SHERIFF OF WILTSHIRE'S AWARD 2021
We are delighted to let you know that Friends of Riverside have received an award for our work during the pandemic from the High Sheriff of Wiltshire!

We have been concentrating on keeping in touch and supporting some of our more senior residents, those who are on their own and shielding or otherwise vulnerable. Let's just say it has been a long winter lockdown for many who miss their friendships and community activity, even just the ability to go shopping.
We have also opened Riverside Community Centre, when we have been allowed to by Government. (Twice re-opened and three times closed!) We feel it is important for everyone who wants to use the Centre, to be able to do so, obviously not for everything as Government restrictions have and will be in place for a while a yet. We can’t wait until 12th April and hopefully we can re-open again, even if to restricted numbers and activities - BUT it's another step to getting back to life as usual!
Best wishes, Kim Power, Mary O'Brien, Margaret Perrin, Peter Gilchriest and Catherine Doody.

RIVERSIDE UPDATE 2nd March 2021
WHEN IS RIVERSIDE RE-OPENING?
**WE ARE CURRENTLY STILL CLOSED **
However, we have had several enquiries as to when we will be reopening Riverside.
We are so looking forward to re-opening again (third time since the pandemic started), but are wary of confirming any dates at present until Government do the same. (Currently, estimated not to be before 12th April 2021).
We don't want to disappoint, especially as in the past the restrictions have meant that not all groups are allowed to meet. However WE ARE HOPEFUL now people are being vaccinated! So watch this space and we will let you know.
Best wishes Kim, Mary, Margaret, Peter and Catherine.

RIVERSIDE UPDATE July 2020
Firstly, we hope everyone is keeping safe and well!
It's been a while since we had to temporarily close Riverside Community Centre in March, per Government advice re Covid-19, but hopefully we now have a date when we can re-open.
As Government guidelines seem to be changing frequently and with short notice, we have decided to aim for a reopening date of 1st September 2020. This is when most classes and activities usually restart after the summer holidays. Also, it gives time for appropriate safety protocols to be put in place to cover a wide variety of different activities, some of which are still currently restricted.
We are so looking forward to re-opening, but need to point out that the date of 1st September 2020 is what we are aiming for, but it is not yet confirmed. We are constantly reviewing Government guidance which may change and this could effect our re-opening date.
If you have any queries, then please email us as we will continue to monitor our email and will post when we have updates on our fb and website.
We really miss everyone at Riverside and hope to see you all again soon.
Best wishes, Kim, Mary, Margaret, Peter and Catherine.

Room Measurements
Room dimensions can be useful when considering where to place tables or chairs for an event. Please bear in mind that sufficient access to fire exits is required. Additionally, room measurements are taken from the original plans and are from the largest room points only - they do not take into account permanent fixtures and fittings. So these dimensions are for indication purposes only and we always recommend visiting Riverside in person to see the space you wish to hire.
Skate Park
The Malmesbury Skate Park is located at the rear of the building, but has a separate entrance. It is also managed separately by Malmesbury Skate Park Group (MSPG). The skatepark is only open for use at specific times, check the Malmesbury Skate Park Group facebook page for opening times or tel: 07984 743796.
