Title 1
This complaint relates to the council’s events sites and results from my trying to get information about the New Year fireworks events in Thanet.
From Christmas 2011 until New Years day I tried to find information about New Years events using the councils three information websites and I have tried subsequently to use these websites to find information about what’s on in the three main Thanet towns in January.
None of the three council events websites mentioned either the fireworks event in Ramsgate that did take place or the cancellation of the one in Broadstairs and event coverage on all three sites for January is very poor.
Warming Words has no events listed for January see http://www.warmingwords.org.uk/january.aspx
Thanet District Council Community Information Portal has one event listed for January, see http://communityportal.thanet.gov.uk/home/
Visit Thanet while slightly better than the others shows only on event for Ramsgate for the whole of January comparing this with the amount of events listed in the local papers local papers, it seems that something has gone radically wrong with the way the council tourist information is ensuring that local events appear on the internet.
Below is one days listings of events from one local paper.
