Heading to the Elvis Festival in Porthcawl this weekend?
"It's Now or Never for thousands of Elvis Presley fans who are heading to the Elvis Festival in Porthcawl, which begins on Friday.
"Our officers will be out and about, along with our police horses and police Hound Dogs, throughout – and Always On Our Mind will be keeping the three-day event safe.
"We're asking that people don't turn into the Devil in Disguise by drinking irresponsibly, as we don't want to anyone to have to experience Jailhouse Rock.
"Our priority is to keep everyone safe and we’ll take whatever steps are necessary in order to do so. My message to everyone is to have fun, but do so responsibly – thank you very much.”
- Local Policing Inspector Mark Davies
