In my small town in the lothians of scotland we have a Healthy living centre that has the advantages of charitable status by going under the umbrella of the community development company charity.
The Healthy living centre has a bar licence that makes it illigal for under 14s to enter the bar area, (a community sports facility that d-bars under 14s!!)
The centre has now extended the bar area by building another bar in the only sports hall. The sports hall is now a bar lounge, and has no sports activities in the sports hall.
I have spoken with the board of trustees, they will continue to run the bars (even though they know that by law under 14s should not enter the bar areas (over 60% of the centre)) simply to get the revenue the bar provides.
Suggest that if the board has no problem with "bending the law" we gain the services of a drug dealer who would match the revenue from the bar in 6 weeks!
Should I turn a blind eye or blow the whistle?
