Club premises certificate

Your application must include:

• a plan of the premises
• a copy of the club rules
• details of the club operating schedule (the club activities and timings)

You will also need to provide details of your operating schedule including:

• what licensable activities will take place at the premises
• when these activities will happen
• when the premises will be open to the public
• if alcohol will be supplied
• whether alcohol will be supplied for consumption on the premises, off the premises, or both
• how you will promote the 4 licensing objectives – these will become conditions of your licence

The operating schedule is a key part of your application. It helps us and other responsible authorities decide if your plans meet the licensing objectives.

You do not need a designated premises supervisor (DPS) if a club premises certificate is in place.

We may inspect your premises as part of the application.
