Devizes Town Council delivers a range of services directly through our own staff and resources, or by supporting other organisations. We believe that these services help make Devizes a pleasant place to live and work. This page gives you information about these services, and should you have any comments we would be pleased to hear from you.
IMPORTANT Not all services are the responsibility of the Town Council, some services are provided by Wiltshire Council. If you are unsure about who does what, please see our checklist…
