Community Premises

Now replaced by a Premises Licence under the Licensing Act 2003

Please see our Licensing Act 2003 page for further advice and information.

The Council supports wide use of community premises.  It is recognised that the requirements of licensing, health and safety and food safety law can be intimidating to volunteer management.

We try to help by taking a coordinated approach to assisting those responsible to comply with the requirements, thereby protecting public safety.  Enquiries are welcomed.

Anyone suffering nuisance due to noise, smells or similar because of a community premises should contact the Environmental Protection team to see if we can help (email environmental.health@wychavon.gov.uk, phone 01386 565233).

Grant of a licence doesn't mean that we've given planning permission: consent under town and country planning law may still be required. Please contact our Planning Services on 01386 565565.
