Wiltshire: 'MyWilts' app update coming soon
The MyWilts app is the quickest way for you to report issues to the council, including highways defects, weather emergencies, fly-tipping and overgrown vegetation.
If you have automatic updates turned on there is nothing else you need to do to start using the new version of MyWilts, when it becomes available. If automatic updates are turned off, simply visit the App Store for Apple devices or the Google Store for Android devices to initiate the update. The update will be compatible for iOS 16 and Android 10, which means devices that can support these or later operating systems can support the new version of the app. Please note, when the update has taken place previous versions of the app will no longer function and you will need to visit your app store to update the app to continue using it.
You can continue to use your previous details to login and report issues. Cases raised in the previous version of the app can still be viewed.

Get ready for a Wraparound Childcare (WAC) expansion to some overseas locations - coming spring term 2025
Are you assigned to a location within the European Economic Area & Switzerland (EEA&S) or using Defence Children Services (DCS) before and after school childcare provision? WAC Overseas will be available to eligible families in these areas from 6 January 2025.
What is Wraparound Childcare funding?
The Wraparound Childcare (WAC) scheme provides funding for up to 20 hours per week, per child, during term time, to eligible Service families with children aged 4 to 11 years old (4-16 years old if receiving Government disability allowances) who are in full time education in school or being home educated. Over 7,000 Service children's before and after school childcare is currently being funded by WAC.
Temporary registration and claims process for WAC Overseas.
A temporary process will be in place from January until at least April 2025. Due to the migration of JPA to the Cloud it is not possible for WAC Overseas registrations and claims to be added to the WAC area of JPA straight away. The temporary process has been put in place to enable eligible families to claim WAC Overseas funding while this migration work takes place. Once JPA migration to the Cloud is complete, there will be a requirement to re-register to continue to submit claims, via JPA in the future. Further guidance documents will be available on the Defence Childcare Information Page on DefNet and Defence Connect in January.

South Wales: E-Scooters & E-Bikes Information
A reminder from South Wales police ahead of Christmas:
Thinking of buying an e-scooter for someone this Christmas?
Unless the lucky recipient has private land on which to use it, please think again.
We are committed to keeping our streets as safe as possible for all and – while it is legal to purchase e-scooters – as it stands they can't be licensed and insured so cannot legally be ridden on public highways.
Our officers don’t want to be seizing your son or daughter’s favourite gift from Santa so please do your research and speak to retailers before handing over your hard-earned cash.
