New Reading Festival microsite on TVP website
Thames Valley Police has launched a new Reading Festival microsite on its website.
The site contains a range of information and advice to make sure that everyone has an enjoyable time at the event, stays safe and reduces their chances of becoming a victim of crime.
On the site, people will be able to find pages giving safety advice, top tips, advice to parents to pass on to festival goers and details of the policing operation for the festival.
During the event there will also be a Twitter feed to the site and YouTube videos will be linked to the pages.
Chief Inspector Les Stone, the day time commander at this year’s festival, said: “This is the first time the Force has created a micro site for a specific event. We hope that it is useful for those who attend the festival in terms of what they should bring to the festival and how they can stay safe.
“We are trying to be as innovative as possible in terms of getting information out to the public to make sure that everyone has a safe and enjoyable time at the festival.”
