A new care service aimed at helping more vulnerable people stay in their own homes has been introduced in Wiltshire.
From Monday, wardens are being replaced by a 24 hour call-out system, in a joint project between Wiltshire Council and the NHS.
Four care providers have been chosen to run the system, which will affect 3,000 vulnerable people.
The Conservative-run council said it was providing a better service.

A building project to create more efficient and patient–focused mental health services in West Norfolk has been completed. The Fermoy Unit, based at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King’s Lynn, Chatterton, and Thurlow House, both on the Chatterton site, Goodwin’s Road, are part of Norfolk and Waveney Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust.
One of the improvements includes a new telephone system dedicated to the mental health service. The new telephone number is: 01553 609933. The changes are part of a project called ‘Building Success in the West’, which is designed to improve the delivery of NHS care.Family carer scooped £1million prize
