Food premises

Under the Food Hygiene (England) Regulations 2006, all food businesses are required to register with their Local Authority at least 28 days prior to opening.

This allows the Council to provide clear guidance on the requirements of the regulations, visit the premises prior to opening and programme regular food safety inspections.

Any changes to existing registered premises such as a change to owner or a change in the nature of the business, must also be notified within the same time period.

No charge is currently made for registration and no certificate of registration is issued, however confirmation of receipt of the form is available on request.

Please view/download the Premises Registration Form from the link on the right.

The name, address and nature of the business are entered onto the public register where they can be viewed by members of the public.

For further information, please contact Environmental Services.
