Whilst youhave submitted serval conditions relating to the promotion of the licensing objectives, I do notbelieve that these are sufficient to mitigate and addition to cumulative impact. Due to this, theMPS objects to the granting of this premises licence under the “prevention of crime anddisorder” licensing objective. · The Licensing Authority has concerns in relation to this application and how the premises would promote the four Licensing Objectives.

Summary of Application
The Sub-Committee has determined an application for a New Premises Licence under the Licensing Act 2003 (“The Act”) in respect of 39 Drury Lane London WC2B 5RR (“The Premises”). The Premises will trade as a high street shop selling low and no alcohol drinks. The majority of products sold will be alcohol-free (0.5% ABV and under) but there will be a small selection (no more than 10% of our range) of lower ABV drinks too, e.g., beers under 3%, wines under 8% and spirits where the ABV of the final drink when mixed with a mixer will be significantly lower than standard cocktails.
The Applicant states that a major part of its plan for the Premises will be educating both consumers and professionals about low and no alcohol drinks. Club Soda has been operating since 2015, supporting people to reduce their harmful alcohol use, educating and informing both consumers and trade about low/no alcohol drinks, and organising the Mindful Drinking Festivals. Last winter Club Soda had a pop-up shop on Great Portland Street for three months. This Premises will be a permanent location and allows the Applicant to become the mindful drinking hub for all of London and the UK. There are no other alcohol-free shops in the UK. The Premises will have space not only for retail sales on the ground floor, but also a small amount of seating for customers to sit down and enjoy low and alcohol-free drinks, as well as a separate basement area for training events, such as cocktail making masterclasses and small trade events.
Club Soda is a Certified B Corporation social business, aiming for a positive impact on society and the environment. Their articles of association require that "Directors must act in a manner that will in the opinion of the directors ensure that the Company contributes to a world in which people drink mindfully and live well." They have worked with central and local government to promote public health and encourage licensed venues to stock more low and no alcohol drinks. Club Soda see their shop as a great venue to continue their work.
