Call Johnny Walker on 07970 134 730 for details of how to make a Personal Licence application in the Tewkesbury area. I deliver the one day Personal Licence course and will also complete the Personal Licence application forms with each applicant. My advice is always free, just call.

The law regarding Personal Licences is detailed in Part 6 of the Licensing Act 2003 and also in the Licensing Act 2003 (Personal Licences) Regulations 2004.

The Act defines a ‘Personal Licence’ as a licence which is granted to an individual which authorises them to sell alcohol or to supply alcohol in accordance with a premises licence.

A Personal Licence lasts indefinitely unless revoked, or forfeited.

During the lifetime of a Personal Licence the licence holder has a duty to notify the Licensing Authority of any change in their name or address.

A Personal Licence holder also has a duty to notify a court that they hold a personal licence if they are charged with a relevant offence (Schedule 4 of the Act outlines which offences are deemed as relevant offences).

Also, a Personal Licence holder also has a duty to notify the Licensing Authority should they be convicted of a relevant or foreign offence and must provide their licence to the Licensing Authority for updating.

Personal Licence holders also have a duty to produce their Personal Licence when asked to do so by a police officer or an authorised officer of the Licensing Authority at the premises where they are authorising the sale or supply of alcohol.

If you live in the Tewkesbury area, give me a call and I can answer all your questions about licensing. Cheers. Johnny Walker.
