Thousands of people are expected to turn out for Thames Valley Police's annual open day this weekend.

The event, taking place on Saturday, September 7, between 10am and 4pm, will be held at the force's training centre in Sulhamstead, near Reading.

Deputy Chief Constable Ben Snuggs said: "Our Force Open Day is an incredible opportunity for us to showcase all the fabulous people and capabilities we have in Thames Valley Police, all of which work together to protect our communities.

"You can also expect to experience the amazing work of a range of our departments."

The open day attracted more than 4,000 people last year, offering visitors a behind the scenes look at policing.

As well as chances to meet officers, visitors can expect a range of activities including talks and demonstrations.
