If a club wants to make changes to their club premises certificate, they can apply for a variation of the certificate.
If the club is only looking to make small changes to the certificate, which will not impact on the promotion of the licensing objectives, it may be possible to apply for a minor variation of the club premises certificate. Minor variations are subject to a simpler application process and a lower application fee.
Further guidance on variation applications can be found on the GOV website.
To help make your application process run more smoothly, Worcestershire Regulatory Services offer a pre-application assistance service.
