The primary and secondary school winners of Wiltshire Youth Council's Eco Week competition have been announced.

A resident from Lyneham has recently been issued with £400 fixed penalty notice (FPN) by Wiltshire Council for fly-tipping waste in the area.

Residents who wish to renew their garden waste collections are being reminded to do so, to avoid missing a collection.

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.

To help inform any future works as part of the Salisbury River Park proposals, the Environment Agency is carrying out preliminary ground investigation work at the Maltings and Central Area Car Park.

For this year's Recycle Week, Wiltshire Council is urging its residents to continue recycling despite the challenges that COVID-19 has presented.

Wiltshire Council has installed a new commercial-sized bin on George Street, Warminster, to help solve the issue of fly-tipping on this street.

A man from Lyneham has been fined £400 after CCTV captured him leaving bin liners full of waste next to the recycling bins in Sainsbury's car park, Royal Wootton Bassett. The waste was deposited directly underneath a sign warning people not to fly-tip waste next to recycling bins, and advising them of the consequences of fly-tipping.

Wiltshire Council is increasing its partnership working with Wiltshire Police to conduct roadside checks on people carrying waste in order to disrupt and prosecute fly-tippers. These people are breaking both stay at home government guidance and fly-tipping laws.
