BBC Radio Wiltshire

BBC Radio Wiltshire covers a county whose stories connect towns, villages and countryside. Its local audio includes reporting from Swindon, features on Wiltshire's heritage and opportunities for residents to tell their own stories. The station combines these strands with music and conversation, while sharing parts of its live schedule with the wider BBC Local Radio network.

Secret Wiltshire looks beyond a headline to explore a place or an unexpected connection. Featured episodes have taken listeners around Avebury Manor and examined Winnie-the-Pooh's link with Wiltshire. Need To Know Wiltshire concentrates on matters affecting people now, including the future of Swindon's Wyvern Theatre, heavy goods vehicles in a historic town and mesothelioma in Swindon. The mix places culture, transport and health in a recognisably local setting.

Longer storytelling also appears in the station's audio selection. Crime Next Door: The Salisbury Poisonings addresses a major event associated with the county, while Ten Tiny Plays invites people to write a radio play set in Wiltshire. Upload offers another route for local talent to reach the BBC. Your Voice gathers community stories and issues, and Make a Difference shares help and information.

The music schedule includes Kevin Philemon's programme celebrating black life in the west through music and conversation. Selections have ranged from Lorna Bennett and Marcia Griffiths to Usher and A Tribe Called Quest. Late Night Jo brings Jo Good's stories and conversation later in the evening; weekend overnight hours join BBC Radio 5 Live. These shared programmes sit alongside the county-specific reporting and features available through Radio Wiltshire.
