THE Pubwatch scheme has been relaunched in Bradford on Avon after venue owners unanimously voted for its return.
A meeting held at Cumberwell Park Golf Club on Monday was attended by 17 local pub, hotel, restaurant and off-licence owners.
Pubwatch aims to form a link between premises to provide a safe drinking environment and help reduce drink-related crime.
It will also give support to venue owners, who all have to apply for new licenses under the Licensing Act, which comes into force next month, enabling them to apply for increased opening hours.
