The power to regulate street collections and to issue licences is contained in the 'Police, Factories, etc (Miscellaneous Provisions ) Act 1916'. No collection should be made in any street or public place within the Stratford-upon-Avon District unless a permit has been obtained from the licensing authority.
A Street Collection Application should be submitted before 30th September of the year before the requested collection date. As collection dates are limited, it is advised that you apply in good time to avoid disappointment.
Collections in Stratford-Upon-Avon Town are booked up well in advance, however, we may be able to accomodate your charitable collection in another town within the District if your application is received after the annual deadline. Contact us on 01789 260211 for more information.
Once the permit is issued no collections should be made except on the day and within the hours stated in the permit.
For further information please contact the Licensing Team on 01789 260211 or by email at licensing@stratford-dc.gov.uk. or by fax on 01789 260808.
