Licensing for the Co-op

Notices have appeared on the pillars outside the Sales Office regarding the Co-op’s application for a licence to sell alcohol 06.00-23.00, 7 days a week. We are drawing your attention to this because, as residents, you may have a view on the desirability or otherwise of those hours.

Also, some people may wish for the sale of alcohol to be restricted on race days. Previously, a restriction has been in place throughout South Bank prohibiting shops and off-licences from selling alcohol before 7pm on race days, in an attempt to minimise post-race anti-social behaviour.

Please note that if you wish to raise an objection, it must be submitted in writing before 29th April 2021.

Interested in joining the Committee?

In the 2½ years since the CWRA was set up we have had nineteen different members of the Committee. The work is voluntary and people have opted in and out for varying reasons, often as personal priorities change. We currently have a Committee of nine members which feels about the right size. However, one or two serving members are looking to leave the Committee this year due to house moves and commitment to other projects.

If you feel you have something to offer and would like to become involved please get in touch at admin@cwra.co.uk. We can then arrange a suitably socially distanced informal chat about potential roles.
