ROYAL UNITED HOSPITAL HOPPER BUS SERVICE

Wiltshire Council is, once again, considering stopping this invaluable service.  There is a petition running to save it which people are urged to sign.  This can be accessed at https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ruh-hopper.  Even if you signed the previous petition it is important that you sign this one as well,

My Wiltshire App

The My Wiltshire App is available to members of the public wishing to report a problem – e.g. a street light that isn’t working, fly tipping, a pot hole, etc.  It can be downloaded from the Wiltshire Council website and is very easy to use.

If you would prefer to report things to me, I am still happy to pass your request to Wiltshire Council.
