Pubs and restaurants slammed drink-driving this festive season! Hospitality spots across Sussex joined the fight to keep roads safer over Christmas and New Year.

Licensing Officers Hit Sussex Venues

One licensing officer toured local pubs and restaurants, handing out new beer mats, posters, and flyers. The aim? To spark conversations and get customers thinking twice before driving after a drink.

Catchy Slogans That Stick

  • “123 on your couch, not on the road!” – A bold call to stay off the wheel if you’ve been drinking.
  • “Are you mate enough to call them out before someone calls 999?” – Challenging friends to step up and stop dangerous behaviour.

Local Heroes Join The Campaign

Among those spreading the word and materials was Hastings and 123, helping ensure the message hit home in Sussex’s popular nightspots.
