What is a 'Club Licence'?

A 'Club Licence' is specifically designed to permit clubs to sell alcohol to their members and their guests. This license recognizes the unique nature of social clubs, where the sale of alcohol is restricted to individuals who are part of the club or invited guests. This regulatory framework ensures that the alcohol service is provided in a controlled environment, promoting responsible consumption among its members.

The requirements for a Club Licence typically include having a clear membership process, ensuring that the club operates primarily for recreational, social, or sporting purposes, and adhering to guidelines set forth by local authorities regarding the hours of operation and types of alcohol served. By focusing on the membership aspect, this type of license helps to foster a community atmosphere and can contribute to the overall safety and orderliness of alcohol service within the club environment.
