Appleby Horse Fair focus for online chat

Organisers of an annual gathering of thousands of Gypsies and travellers in Cumbria are to hold a meeting online, for people to ask questions.

June's Appleby Horse Fair is attended by about 10,000 Gypsies and travellers as well as 30,000 other visitors.

Cumbria Police will host the web chat on Wednesday night to give people the chance to speak to members of the Appleby Fair Multi Agency Group.

They include police officers and a Traveller representative.
