  Childrens' Admission Policy

        The Greyhound Inn is a family pub which forms part of the village community of Cotehill.  As such, we feel that it is appropriate to design a policy relating to the admission of children which considers the needs of this community.

        It shall be the case that unaccompanied children under the age of fourteen, shall not be allowed on the premises during the times that the supply of alcohol takes place.  Any children under the age of fourteen shall be admitted provided that they are accompanied by an adult, who shall remain on the premises, and be in control of that child's safety and conduct throughout the visit.  Provided that the adult follows these conditions, there will be no restrictions as to the areas that they may occupy.

        Unaccompanied children over the age of fourteen may enter the premises and take soft drinks, snacks or food provided that they remain in the games room, other than to enter or leave the building, to use the toilets or to purchase refreshment.  All purchases will take place at the part of the bar as indicated on the plan of the premises.  This is to maintain separation from the area that is mainly used by adults to order or purchase alcohol.

        The Designated Premises Supervisor will be vigilant towards the safety, conduct and behaviour of those children over the age of fourteen and will, by establishing the current age of the village children, have a more accurate view of when individuals become eighteen.  It will be the policy that anyone who abuses these conditions may be barred from the premises until they are eighteen years of age.
