Accrington lap-dancing club given go-ahead

ACCRINGTON’S first lap-dancing club is to open after plans were given the green light.

The application to open the proposed Eye Candy lap dancing club on Blackburn Road was approved by planners who have granted applicants a sexual entertainment venue (SEV) licence.

Planning officers approved the bid under delegated powers and say that no objections from the general public had been received following the application’s submission.

Lancashire Constabulary are also said to have inspected the premises and raised no objections.

Hyndburn’s planning department say the applicant met all the requirements of their SEV policy and that the proposed club rules are acceptable.

The venue has not yet applied for a premises licence for the sale of alcohol.

so the idiots get excited about supposed groomers at parks, meanwhile their real spiritual level reveals itself as they allow a lap dancing club. so who owns this sick idea?

Accy is really picking up for a top night out - Wethy's, Voodoo's, Grant's, Railway. All nice new / refurbed venues. Now a new Lappy bar.

Happy Days :-)

I agree.. Society around us is constantly promoting sexualisation from such an early age now, which is sending crime and sexual assaults and attacks almost a part of daily practice. with the lappy club will bring more alcohol and more drugs for the un-civilised.. Well done a town full of pound shops and now a lap-dancing bar.. wot next they be giving us a brothel!!

I have never been to Accy but I certainly will now.

By the way, for those concerned I would say these clubs are not at all rowdy.

Consenting adults watching a few half-naked women writhing about in a private club is a world apart from paedophiles plying eleven-year old girls with alcohol and grooming them.

its the slippery snake to obbsession with sex, not forgetting the dosh to be made. and if you think the girls in the trade are not treated badly, then send your cv

If they were treated that badly, most of them wouldn't do it.

I'd send my CV but don't have the 'qualifications'. :D

As long as it's just lap dancing and not those ping-pong shows - they can have your eye out.

I'm not in the least bit surprised Accy has gone to the dogs in the last 20 years so bad it's unreal. Even less of a surprise to most Accy blokes is that your girlfriend, wife will be on stage and you know it hahaha only income to be made in Accy these days.

So Sabden turn down a detached five bedroom house, yet accy allow a perverted club without objection. Maybe the parish council in Sabden should get an application to turn the white hart into a adult bar and massage parlour then they really have something to object to

One of few jobs where a "D" is a better qualification than an "A"
