Chippenham MP Michelle Donelan walked the 87-mile length of the K&A canal last weekend to help raise funds for a new building for Holt Pre-School. She completed the walk yesterday having raised around £6,400. The Chippenham constituency includes the K&A Canal from Dundas to Bowerhill. Michelle Donelan is the Minister of State for Higher and Further Education.
The police are appealing for information about the whereabouts of a woman who is missing in Devizes. Victoria Clements, 53, has been missing since approximately 1pm on 22nd September 2021 and the police and her friends are concerned for her welfare. She is diabetic. It is believed that she has left the area on foot and that she might have been heading towards more rural locations on the outskirts of the town – so boaters might have seen her on the towpath.
