How representations work
Croydon Council’s licensing page says representations on a new premises licence can be made by interested parties, including local residents or businesses who may be affected by the activities of the premises.
The council says representations must relate to at least one of the four licensing objectives:
- the prevention of crime and disorder
- public safety
- the prevention of public nuisance
- the protection of children from harm
The public notice says written representations should be made within 28 days from 1 May 2026 to Croydon Council’s Licensing Team at Bernard Weatherill House, 8 Mint Walk, Croydon CR0 1EA. Croydon Council’s licensing page also gives the licensing team email as [email protected].
Residents should include the application details when contacting the council and should check the council page for any update to the application or deadline before sending comments.
Why this matters locally
Licensing applications can affect nearby homes and businesses, particularly where proposed hours run into the evening. The official application documents and the council’s licensing guidance are the safest sources for residents deciding whether to make a representation.
