Ear To Clear Opens Tomorrow At George Street, Warminster

Sunday 11th August 2024

Ear To Clear will open for business at 16 George Street, Warminster, tomorrow – Monday 12th August 2024.

Holly and Tish write:

We’ve finally made it!! The final hurdle . . . there really has been blood, sweat and tears. But we will be finally open for business in our new clinic in George Street as of tomorrow.

Unfortunately, due to Tish being 37 weeks pregnant our appointments will be slightly limited to begin with. But as soon as baby is settled we will be able to offer a wider range of appointments.

A little about us.. we are both registered nurses and qualified together in 2013. We both still work part time within the NHS but started this little venture in 2021 when most of the local GP practices stopped offering ear wax removal on the NHS and locally there was only one place offering this service with a 8 month waiting list! We started our business travelling to clients homes, then set up a clinic in a garden room in Warminster and a clinic in Frome. With the help from Wiltshire’s Vibrant Grant scheme we were able to take our business on its most recent journey onto Warminster’s High Street (well George Street, but close enough)!

We are truly so grateful to all our friends and family who have helped and supported us on this journey! Vibrant grants- as without their financial support this wouldn’t have been possible. But most importantly the people who have used our service, recommended us to others and really helped us to create a service we are very proud of!

Please note- We are an appointment only clinic, so please please ensure you have an appointment before coming as we will be unable to accept walk ins!

More information on what we offer can be found on our website:

Www.eartoclear.co.uk

P.S. have a look at our google reviews (there’s plenty).

We cannot wait to welcome anyone needing our services soon.

Thank you, truly, Holly & Tish.

First Ever Warminster Independent Spring Market Was A Success

Monday 25th March 2024

Press Release from Warminster Town Council:

Exciting Plans For Future Events As People Flock To Hugely Successful Warminster Independent Spring Market.

The first ever Warminster Independent Spring Market was a huge success with the town uniting for an incredible day of independent market stalls, music, and entertainment, as well as food and drink vendors on Sunday 24th March.

Road closures were in place as 60 stalls filled the High Street and Market Place, with a further 30 more stalls and food available in the Civic Centre. Huge footfall was recorded at multiple locations across the town as a truly buzzing atmosphere was created.

Sticky Toffee Jazz launched a programme of entertainment, singing from the grounds of St Lawrence’s Chapel. Other music highlights included fantastic performances by Dusk Drums, Jane Bennett, Wade Merritt and Ben and Tim. There was something for all the whole family, with free, fun activities for children inside The Athenaeum Centre.

Closing the road created a bustling and enjoyable experience as stall holders reported excellent sales, with some selling out completely. The weather remaining dry all-day helping to make the day enjoyable for all that visited as the Warminster community united in support of the very popular event.

A Warminster Independent Market spokesperson said: “The first Warminster Spring Street Market saw independent traders from all over the South West turn out – with many of the 60 stalls selling out completely or recording record sales, as the people flocked into town.

“Although only estimated numbers for now, we believe there was in the region of 30,000 visitors across the day with upwards of 4,000 people/hour wandering through the High Street visiting stalls and local shops. The live music was a real bonus with crowds gathering to listen to many wonderful performances.

“An impromptu performance from the Athenaeum Masqueraders and their upcoming Les Misérables show meant you didn’t want to leave the market too early. The Warminster Business Network thanks the stall holders, volunteers, visitors and Warminster Town Council and Civic Centre for their support in what was a truly fantastic event. Plans are already in place for the next one… let us know your feedback!”

Other businesses across the town also extended opening hours and had special offers as hundreds of excited visitors arrived in Warminster as Reeves the Baker and Taste Deli proved very popular throughout the day.

The Warminster Civic Centre Spring Market in Sambourne Road, was also incredibly popular, running from 10am to 6pm.

Lucy Guy, Civic Centre Manager, said: “The atmosphere was great, lots of excitement, with stallholders saying it was the best they had sold at, with many looking forward to coming again.”

Warminster Community Radio were also in attendance broadcasting live for those who could not make it in person.

A Warminster Town Council spokesperson added: “The whole day was incredible and a great day for Warminster and local businesses. There were so many positive aspects of the day, the Civic Centre market had record attendance and the independent market was fantastic with stalls from local traders and beyond attracting large crowds into our town.

“The event was a collaboration between the town council and Warminster Business Network, and it was wonderful to see so many people supporting local businesses.

“Planning for the next events has already begun. Warminster Town Council wants to work with the Warminster community to put on super events that benefit all.”

The next Warminster Independent Market event will be on Saturday 29th June. There are also plans for a Food and Drink Festival on Sunday 1st September, and the Christmas event will be on Saturday 30th November, which will include the Warminster lights switch-on.
