Responsible Retailing Forum
The c-store sector faces constant challenges in the area of retailing responsibly. 2007 saw the changing licensing laws and continued work around the Government's Alcohol Harm Reduction Strategy and the age change for selling tobacco.
2008 will see further activities around tobacco with new sanctions for retailers and continued debate around alcohol responsibility issues.
Members can expect to receive advice on issues affecting the sector, including regular updates from the Portman Group, local authorities and licensing experts.
The ACS Public Affairs team will also keep members up-to-date on political issues and likely legislation.
This Thursday attendees will see presentations from: Don Shenker, Director of Policy and Services at Alcohol Concern; Responsible Drinks Retailing Award Winner – Lesley Brown from Frankmarsh Stores ; Stephen Hogg will explain an initiative co-ordinated by the Retail of Alcohol Standards Group on tackling under age sales; and much more.
Come along to the Ramada Plaza, Bristol this Thursday 13th March 2008. The forum runs from 0930 to 1520. Download the agenda for more information or call Sarah C Johnson to book your place on 01252 515001.
