Pubwatch scheme bars serious offenders from Oxford pubs
A ‘Banned’ scheme has been launched in Oxford to stop those barred from one pub entering other premises in the city.
The scheme run by the city’s Pubwatch group, the Nightsafe Partnership, and the city centre management company OX1, is designed to target serious offenders who commit acts of violence, cause criminal damage, or use drugs.
Individuals could now face a 12 month ban from up to 60 premises which are Pubwatch members.
Karen Crossan, Nightsafe’s manager, said: “It will send out a strong message that if you want to continue being allowed in licensed premises, then you need to behave yourself.”
