This past weekend, Stratford-on-Avon District Council's Licensing team partnered up with Stratford Police officers to carry out licence checks across local pubs and taxis.

From late-night lifts to last orders at the bar, we were making sure licences were in place, conditions were being followed, and everyone was playing by the rules.

Most businesses were spot on, paperwork present, licences valid and cooperation top-notch. Always great to see responsible operators doing things the right way.

A big thanks to Stratford Police, to the venues and drivers who welcomed us - even when we turned up unannounced.
