BELBROUGHTON CHURCH HALL
NOTES FOR APPLYING FOR A TEMPORARY EVENT NOTICE (TEN)
Temporary event notices (TENs) are a way that you can get permission to sell alcohol or provide entertainment or late night refreshment on a temporary basis.
To get permission the person named on the booking form and organising the event at Belbroughton Church Hall needs to give Bromsgrove District Council a TEN no later than 10 working days before the day on which the event is to start alongside the fee of £21. A copy of the TEN also needs to be sent to the police and the environmental health officer.
Whilst the minimum notice you have to give is 10 working days (you do NOT count Saturdays and Sundays or any Bank Holidays), we would encourage you to serve your TEN as soon as possible during the process of arranging the event to make sure you can get the permission you want.
The easiest and most efficient way of making an application is online and this then brings about automatic notification to the police and environmental health officer.
Our experience is that an online application is usually dealt with within 5 working days.
