New ways to get barred from pubs

A hospital A&E department in Lancashire has become the first in England and Wales to join the ‘Pubwatch’ scheme.

The move means that anyone caught attacking or insulting A&E workers will be barred from 22 pubs and clubs in the Chorley and South Lancs area.

Are hospitals on your patch looking at introducing a new scheme or perhaps they have something similar in place already to deal with drunken louts?
