UPDATE (10 MARCH 2025)
We are now open for new applications for the year 2025/26!
Please see the policy on the right hand side of the screen, this includes all relevant details and forms, including the application form.
We have opted to retain the existing policy for this coming season but we have amended the application form and have included some additional guidance. We will continue to work on a new policy to introduce in 2026 and we always welcome comments on this at any time.
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.
