More free nursery spaces could be made available in Westbury, after Wiltshire Council secured an extra £3m in Government funding.

The investment will extend the provision of free childcare to two-year-olds in nurseries, at pre-schools and with childminders.

If parents get certain benefits, have a household income below £16,190 or if a child has a disability or special educational need, they could be eligible.
