Is your 16+ year-old about to have their first festival experience? Reading Festival has become a rite of passage for many and helped create great memories for young festival goers over the years.

Festival organisers have a safety advice section to help ensure a safe and fun experience to add to your child's positive memory bank!

See the link in comments - help your child feel confident about what to do if they're worried about anything.

Looking for something for the kids to do this summer? 🚲

West Berks Council have advised that they still have some spaces available on their Bikeability Courses taking place this summer.

It’s a great opportunity for children to develop their cycling skills, build confidence and learn how to stay safe on the roads. 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️

If your child enjoys cycling, why not see if there’s still a space available?

🔥 Please Help Us Keep Our Open Spaces Safe 🔥

As the heatwave continues, the grass on the Recreation Ground & North Street Playing Fields remains extremely dry and at increased risk of fire.

Please remember:

🚫 BBQs are not permitted on either site.
🚭 Please do not throw cigarette butts onto the ground. Even a small discarded cigarette can start a fire in these dry conditions.

Your support in helping us minimise the risk of fire and keep our community spaces safe is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for helping us look after our village. 💚
