The benefits of the ArcAngel scheme,
basically, it's all about public safety,
making sure that the town centre is well policed and that the premises
are all run
appropriately to give people
a feeling of safety when they're out in the town.
I think the benefits will be phenomenal actually, because everybody along this
street in particularly, which is renowned for being
a poor area and for having difficult
clientele to deal with.
It will change the whole thing because
each pub along the street
will work together to try and cut out
those particular type of people coming into the establishments.
Yes, the benefits of ArcAngel will
definitely change the way that
people use this street in particular I think.
by joining the ArcAngel scheme, I think that
we're helping to make Macclesfield a safer place if all the
publicans and bar owners are
working together really, to communicate if there's any problems in the town and
we can pass
that information between ourselves quickly,
and I think that can only be a good thing.
I think other establishments should join the scheme because it provides a unity
in the town centre, it means that
is not just individual premises that are
taking responsibility, it's the town centre licensees as a whole.
I think if as many people as possible join, then
the scheme will be more successful
I understand that from the information I have been given that the
problems will arise when,
when the football season starts and this street particularly because its on
the direct route from the train station to the football ground.
So, we are expecting a few issues there, but we've had some great support from the police
so far
to help us
limit the kind of
I don't know how you would put it, intimidation or kind of people who will come in and cause trouble,
and what to do and there's
definitely joined up thinking there from the police and each of the establishments
within the town.
I definitely think that every establishment in the center of Macclesfield
should join the scheme.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the scheme
for one moment, I think it's great to be a part of that
community and know you've got backup when you need it,
and also all of the
pre-information, the information that you get before you have to call
anybody out
so you know
there's the, we were talking about it earlier at a meeting
today, there's the
online form that you can fill in, that basically does a risk assesment
and points out
things that you might want to be aware of,
and I think all of that information,
especially for a young establishment like ourselves, is absolutely imperative so
recommending the scheme to others,
I just wouldn't hesitate.
