There are none I'm afraid.
Bristol has always been considered too close to London for any regular air service to the capital so I suppose Stansted is grouped with 'London' in this respect.
There have been rumours for some time now of a NWI service and the airport has stated publicly this is one of its targets, but thus far the cupboard is bare.
I believe there is still an Air Wales service to CWL from NWI via DUB but I don't think it is a daily service.

If you want to use public transport I would suggest a First Great Western train from Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads via Bath, but get off at Chippenham which is between Swindon and Bath.
Melksham is about five miles south of Chippenham. Many of the FGW expresses stop at Chippenham.
Not sure of the bus situation between Chippenham and Melksham but a taxi from the station oughtn't to break the bank.
Don't catch a FGW train going via Bristol Parkway because these trains take a different route west of Swindon and don't go through Chippenham.

Yes, there have also been rumours of a Flybe NWI-EXT service. However, Flybe is not necessarily the rumoured carrier for a NWI-BRS.

Take the flybe NWI-JER service, change onto the JER-BRS. Total flight time 1:15ish, youl'll have to look into the connection times though.
