POLICIES

  OUR FUR FREE MISSION

All LSD Promotions Markets & Events are fur free. 

Recognising that the use and sale of real fur as cruel and unnecessary, LSD Promotions was the first market & special event organiser in the UK to prohibit the sale of products containing real animal fur on all markets and special events operated by the company either privately or under contract to Local Authorities in the United Kingdom. 

All events held and located on council owned land, council and privately leased markets (including seasonal and Christmas markets delivered by LSD Promotions).  All products wholly or partially made with real fur are covered by this ban and include for example; fur coats, vintage fur, fur shawls, rugs, garments with fur trim, fur pompom hats, and fur accessories and trinkets. Such products are wholly unacceptable and are strictly forbidden to be sold at any market or event operated by LSD Promotions.

Failure to comply or any breach of this policy and our terms & conditions will result in a ban from trading on any event or market operated by LSD Promotions and its associated companies now and in the future. 

We ask that you help us in our efforts to eradicate the sale of real fur on markets and events in the United Kingdom.     

Fur Free Markets is a nationwide initiative run by Respect for Animals .

The full policy is attached below.

  LSD Promotions is committed to ensuring that equal opportunity to trade is provided to all traders which means the Company does not offer trade line exclusivity on any of our markets or events. 

The Company fully understands that your priority is to secure a pitch on a market / event to make income for your own business and our approach is to always work collaboratively with each trader to achieve this as far as is reasonably possible. 

However, there are situations whereby we cannot accommodate every trader on a market / event and the purpose of this policy is to set out the procedure as to how these situations are managed in accordance with the Competition Act 1998. 

The full policy is attached below.

Alcohol Policy 

  LSD Promotions work closely with our Local Authority Partners to promote responsible drinking and the protection of children from harm. 

 It is against the law to sell alcohol to someone under 18 anywhere in the UK and can impose an unlimited fine. (Licencing Act 2003).  

LSD Promotions enforce a challenge 25 policy on all of our markets and special events. Challenge 25 is a scheme that encourages anyone who is over 18 but looks under 25 to carry acceptable ID to purchase alcohol. It is the traders responsibility to train staff in charge of alcohol sales on your 

stall to challenge 25. 

Please download the LSD Promotions Policy on responsible alcohol sales below. As part of the downloadable document, you can download a Challenge 25 poster (which must be displayed on your stall) a refusal register that must be completed if a sale is refused and also a form for the personal license holder to authorise sales on their behalf. 

If you do not have access to a printer, please let us know at head office and we will be more than happy to print these documents and post them out to you, free of charge. 

Please be aware that Temporary Event Notices are required on most sites that we operate. Please make sure you check with our customer service team before applying for a stall on the licensing conditions for that site. All prepaid events are non refundable, which includes any trader who did not obtain a TEN in time for the event. 

Age Restricted Goods

LSD Promotions are aslo committed to ensure that the sale of age restricted products are challenged in accordance with the law. Our age restricted products policy outlines a traders responsibility to comply with both legislation and LSD internal procedures and the full policy can be found here.
