The TV station, which will be available free on the internet at
www.kenttv.com, will put the
spotlight on Kent, boosting the county's profile locally and
drawing in a national and worldwide audience.

highlight the best that Kent has to offer and make it a community

Webcasting
Council meetings and other events are being webcast over the
internet.
Webcasting enables events to be broadcast live to a wider
audience or seen when and where it suits the individual.
Some of our council meetings are broadcast live on our website,
giving people across the county the chance to see council
decision-making in action.
Increasingly, webcasting will be used for greater engagement
with customers. |
