The Council has adopted the provisions of the Hypnotism Act 1952 and any exhibition, demonstration or performance of hypnotism on any person therefore requires the express written consent of the licensing authority and must comply with any conditions attached to the consent.
 
 

How to apply

An application for consent must be in writing and signed by the applicant or their agent. It should normally be made not less that 28 days in advance of the performance concerned to ensure that it can be dealt with by the date of the performance. This period may be reduced in the case of a hypnotist who has performed at the same venue within the last three years without any problems.
 
No fee is payable for the consent and there are no public registers.
 
Standard Conditions apply to all performances and these, with the application form, are available to download below.
 
Tacit consent applies to this application.  The maximum period for dealing with applications is normally 42 days.

Consumer complaint

We would always advise that in the event of a complaint the first contact is made with the trader by you - preferably in the form of a letter (with proof of delivery). If that has not worked, if you are located in the UK, Consumer Direct will give you advice. From outside the UK contact the UK European Consumer Centre.
