MALMESBURY AND DISTRICT TWINNING ASSOCIATION

Town twinning, exchanges and international friendship have been a part of Malmesbury since the 1950s. The Twinning Association is a voluntary and members’ organisation set up to assist the Town Council in this work.

The organisation promotes friendship between Malmesbury and its people and those of Niebüll in Germany, Gien in France, Bad Hersfeld in Germany, and any other town with which Malmesbury has a friendship link. It also encourages and organises visits to and from our linked towns particularly by young people, and supports the development of contacts to broaden cultural, recreational, educational, religious and commercial links and understanding.
