Underage Sales

What do we do?

 

We have three clear strategies for tackling these sales in Gloucestershire.

  1. We give advice to traders on selling age-restricted products
    Together with our colleagues in the South West we have produced a comprehensive training pack called No Proof of Age, No Sale on CD-ROM to help businesses train their staff. Regular updates will be issued on the SWERCOTS* website.

     

  2. We encourage the use of proof of age cards
    See PASS website for information on PASS accredited proof of age cards.
     

  3. We carry out test purchasing operations
    Assisted by young volunteers we check for compliance with the law.
