Press Compound Media Passes
Due to the large numbers of media teams
and photographers asking for access to record the Cheese Rolling, it has become
necessary to issue Media Passes for entry to the ‘Press Compound’. These will be issued on a
‘first-come-first-served’ basis and details are as follows:
This could
include pre-arranged meetings / interviews with officials prior to the day.
All persons wishing to access the "Press Compound" or "Starters Compound" MUST have an official pass to gain entry. Please e-mail your request for an application form to Press Compound Media Pass Quoting "Media Pass Application", please mention which category of pass you would like. Requests must be received by us no later than Saturday 10th May 2008, to ensure that you receive the passes in time.
The Media Passes only relate to the (two) Official
Compounds, the Press and Officials Compound at the foot of the hill and the
Press and Starters Compound at the top of the hill. Media Passes must be worn at all times. Members of the Media should wear high visibility (safety) clothing when in the non-public areas at the event. Although the general area is Public
Common Land, for reasons of safety, areas of the land are temporarily defined as
Non Public Areas, within which public access and movement is restricted. As the event is held on registered common land, no permissions are required to attend, photograph or film etc., other than in the official press compounds. For considerations of safety, no filming or photography will be permitted within the fenced-off areas of the hill during the Cheese-Rolling events on the day. All persons attending the event, including those persons using the press compound area, do so entirely at their own risk. You are reminded that it is your responsibility to carry out an appropriate risk assessment and take all necessary precautions to ensure your personal safety. |
