Pubwatch can be described as the licensed trade’s equivalent of Neighbourhood Watch. The basic principle of Pubwatch is that its licensee members will agree to work together to improve the safety of their premises, for the benefit of their staff and customers.
Pubwatch in Andover is a scheme of local, independent people working in licensed premises. They often take part in safety and alcohol awareness campaigns.
The objectives of Pubwatch Andover are:
- to tackle and prevent anti-social behaviour and criminal activity
- promote safe drinking environments for customers and secure working environments for staff
- improve communication and sharing information between licensees
Monthly Pubwatch meetings take place in the town centre. Andover BID levy paying licensees are invited to attend the monthly Pubwatch meetings. This is very beneficial and will be taken into account when licence renewal actions are required to be documented.
To register interest in Pubwatch and to attend meetings please email: pubwatch@andoverbid.org.uk
