READING Pubwatch has shortlisted as a national finalist for the NAtional Pubwatch Schemes Award 2022.

On Friday, September 2, the Pubwatch scheme was shortlisted for the award which recognises programmes for providing safe drinking environments for customers and staff.

The Reading division’s submission for consideration highlighted its work on the availability of defibrillators in selected venues, training for the care of vulnerable persons, such as the Ask for Angela scheme.

It also launched the Best Bar None accreditation scheme for venues in Reading, which was part of its focus on a close working partnership between stakeholders in the night-time economy.

This means regular communication between Thames Valley Police, Reading Council, Street Pastors, First Stop First Aid, the Business Improvement District, and venues.

Superintendent Steve Raffield, LPA Commander, Thames Valley Police, said,“The Reading Pubwatch is a fine example of partnership working and the sharing of best practice”

Alexa Volker, Business Improvement District Manager said, “The Reading town centre PubWatch group continues to be a strong and impactful force, it serves to bring together valued initiatives that strengthen NTE venues”

Bill Donne, honorary secretary to Reading Pubwatch said: “We are delighted that we have been selected as finalists for the NPW Award.

“It reflects the hard work venue managers have made through partnership working in making the town centre a safer place to work and enjoy a night out over the past year.”

Representatives from Reading Pubwatch will attend the awards ceremony which is sponsored by the JD Wetherspoon pub group, set to be held at the House of Lords in October.
