There is now a new way in which residents of the borough can report things to Havant

Borough Council via their mobile devices.

The new Report-It feature on the Havant Website has been upgraded to enable residents to provide location information using a map and photos when reporting issues such as Litter

Dog Fouling Graffiti and Fly Tipping.

The new feature integrates directly with all mobile devices and uses onboard camera modules and GPS settings to enabled residents to inform the council of what they see while they are walking the streets of the borough.

To turn Report-It into an application icon that will appear on the homescreen of your device simply follow the instructions below:
