Outcomes - Canterbury • 81% of residents felt the Tour coming to Canterbury was a good thing only 5% a bad thing – survey by Canterbury Christchurch University • 94% of residents were aware that the Tour was coming to Canterbury and most awareness was around road closures and route details – Canterbury Christchurch College University
Outcomes - Canterbury • 72% of businesses interviewed felt the Tour coming had been a positive thing and only 11% a negative - survey by Canterbury Christchurch University • Viewed by an estimated 50,000 people in the Canterbury sector – Kent Police estimates
Conclusions • High profile events are high risk. • Risk management cannot be a ‘bolt on’. • Opportunity to demonstrate the benefits of risk management. • A danger of ‘overselling’ events can be risk in itself.
