| Safer Shrewsbury Shop & PubWatch Partnership is a scheme designed to support the management of the town’s licensed premises with the key aim of achieving a safer, more pleasant environment for all members of the public to enjoy, regardless of Age, Gender, Race, Colour or Religious Beliefs, by encouraging Licensees to promote Responsible Drinking, Drug Awareness and a sense of Social Responsibility in their respective venues to Bar Staff, Door Supervisors and Customers alike. Members of the scheme have agreed to support each other in an attempt to reduce incidences of violent, criminal or disorderly behaviour in pubs. We have agreed that anyone convicted of Alcohol related offences, Drug related matters in or close by to a member premises will be excluded from all members’ premises. There is also a provision to exclude anyone who is the subject of a Football Exclusion Order. Our scheme is backed by a radio network which allows members to effectively share information with the Police. In addition the Police provide confidential photographs to assist staff identifying excluded individuals. |
