The council is encouraging these people to consider fostering and help meet the demand for more people to foster with Wiltshire Council

The theme for this year's Recycle Week is 'Step it Up', which encourages people to make positive changes to recycle more to reduce carbon emissions

A former Amesbury fruit and veg market trader has been successfully prosecuted by Wiltshire Council for fly tipping cardboard, plastic and rotting food waste and other environmental waste offences.

To find out more about fostering with Wiltshire Council you can talk to the friendly team behind the scenes and hear from foster carers by joining a series of online events.

Young people in care have been sharing their thoughts on what makes a good foster carer as Wiltshire Council launches a new campaign to encourage more people to consider fostering.

Wiltshire Council is urging people to cancel any bookings for household recycling centre (HRCs) visits that they no longer need, at least a day in advance, as more than 500 appointments are being missed during some weeks.

People interested in offering overnight short break care for children with additional needs for small periods of time are being invited to attend an information evening this month to find out more.

Salisbury Household Recycling Centre (HRC) will temporarily close from Monday 22 February-Wednesday 24 February inclusive for essential resurfacing works.
