Wiltshire Council has accredited a precious metal buyer as part of a national scheme providing consumers with a list of local businesses which have given their commitment to trading fairly. Gold-Traders is a precious metal buyer, which offer customers valuation on their jewellery, up-front, with no hidden fees or extra charges, and is the first business of its kind in the country to be awarded this status.

Wiltshire has been highlighted twice in a national report which charts the success of a scheme which recruits volunteers to have a positive impact in a young person's life.

Twenty of Wiltshire Council's adult and children's social workers have been recognised in the British Association of Social Workers (BASW) national awards.

Taking a career break, having a family or working in a different field are all reasons why some qualified social workers move away from the profession. This latest recruitment drive aims to help qualified Social Workers to return to work at Wiltshire Council.
