What is Pubwatch?
National Pubwatch is an entirely voluntary organisation set up to support existing pubwatches and encourage the creation of new pubwatch schemes with the key aim of achieving a safe, secure and responsibly led social drinking environment in all licensed premises throughout the UK helping to reduce alcohol-related crime.
When people are banned they will sometimes try to find a way to get the ban overturned or strike back at the Pubwatch. This may involve the possibility of legal proceedings, therefore the Pubwatch should consider how they can deal with the possible legal costs that might ensue as a result of a legal challenge or action over a ban.
