The UK wide scheme, which is backed by the Home Office was piloted in
Manchester in 2003 and has since been adopted by over thirty other Towns
and Cities with great success. Best Bar None is aimed at promoting
responsible management and operation of alcohol - licensed premises with
the ultimate intention of offering and maintaining a safer, more welcoming,
attractive and lively drinking experience.
Best Bar None aims to reward licensees who provide good management, a safe
and enjoyable environment for customers, discourage binge drinking and
prevent alcohol-related crime. It will encourage licensees to act
responsibly and take pride in their premises and surroundings and, in
doingso, put something back into Town and their local community. The
rewards for licensees include, the prestige of being part of the awards
scheme, increased business within the area and lower insurance premiums
resulting from the fact that they are running safer establishments.
