Hello, welcome to the forum.

Is that from the headlight washer?

Has the washer cover or bumper been damaged?

Welcome @heinze As above, has there been any damage to the bumper would be a place to start. The headlight washer should only activate after the car's been started and the screenwash is used and then every tenth activation of the screen wash IIRC.
If it's activating every time you activate the screen was then there's another problem but yes, that does look rather foamy as well.

Thanks but what do I do

Explain clearly exactly what is happening, answering each question would be a good start 👍

As DogBook and I think it would be worth trying to take some better pictures to give a clearer idea of what is going on - I can't make out if the shroud isn't properly activating, has the jet become misaligned, is the jet partially blocked? Have you recently changed screenwash and if so are you getting more foam on the windscreen and rear screen? Is it only happening on one side? Also it can help to give the model and age of the car - is it pre or post facelift? This sort of information will help the more mechanically minded on the forum guide you towards possible causes and, hopefully, a remedy.

What do you mean "it only happened after my full service cancelled"? Do you mean this has started with no-one else having access to the car rather than it being something that's happened after a service?

Turn the lights off and it won't happen...

But we do not know if this is happening with no controls activating, they didn’t say if its using the screen wash, with lights on or off or anything.

The question creates so many other questions, as we know if the system is working as it should you cant stand there and take a photo.

Its almost as if once ignition is on the lights come on and it just sprays, which of course would be an issue. But we just don’t know that yet.
