Changing the region to install Accuweather on iWatch

Hi everyone,

Thought I had changed the region to the correct one after moving abroad but every time I try to install accuweather on my watch (to get the "real feel" temperature) it says I can't install it because I'm in my old region.

Double checked the region again on a desktop and it looks like it has correctly changed over. I don't have any subscriptions or credit.

Has anyone else had this issue and can help please?
