Street Trading

UPDATE (DECEMBER 2024)

We are developing a new street trading policy and so in the meantime we are suspending applications until this has been completed in Spring 2025. 

Please do contact us if you need to ask us any questions.

There shall be a Licensing Committee held in January 2025 to consider the draft of a new policy for a new 28 day consultation. 

 

All local authorities have a legal discretion to regulate street trading in their area. Street trading is governed by the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1982 Schedule 4 (as amended).

The Council of the Isles of Scilly adopted the relevant legislation to do this in March 2013. 

Our street trading policy is attached on this page, as are our application forms.

Please contact us at licensing@scilly.gov.uk if you wish to find out more.
