Charitable Street Collections

Street Collections (Charitable)

Persons wishing to undertake a street collection in East Devon must apply to the Council for a Street Collection Permit.

Before applying you should first telephone the Licensing Officer on 01395 517411 to establish that the prefered collection town/area and date is available and if available you will be able to make a provisional booking.  It is the Council's policy to normally allow only one collection in each week in a location/town.

Written applications must be received at least 28 days prior to the required date.

Following the collection a form of statement must be returned to the Council within one month giving an account of monies raised.

The form of statement together with the rules and regulations on street collections can be downloaded via the links below.
