How we can help you

Looking to join a pubwatch?

If you have recently taken over premises operating under a premises licence and would like to get involved in the local pubwatch, contact the local National Pubwatch representative. We may know a watch in your area who we can put you in contact with. As there is no requirement for Pubwatches to notify us of their existence, there may be no watch shown in our records, so a double check with your local police or Local Authority Licensing Officer will be necessary to find out if one is operating in your area.

Interested in starting a watch?

If you are interested in starting a pubwatch in your area, we can provide you with material and advice on how to go about it and what things you need to consider when setting up. Your first step should be to contact the representative from our committee that is shown for your area. He or she can then talk you through the process provide material and access to other items that will support you in this, they may also be able to attend you inaugural meeting and help explain what needs to be done and how the watch should operate. The final decision on how the watch will operate is always a matter for the individual watch and National Pubwatch does not have any regulatory or controlling role in the activities of the watch.
