BBC News report (Friday 27 March) that Tesco is set to adopt a new "Think 25" campaign to replace its "Think 21" campaign.
"This means that if a customer looks under 25 and does not have appropriate ID, they will not be sold alcohol in our stores."
Prior to this Tesco had been operating a "Think 21" policy.
Hopefully when implemented this will reduce the issues about underage drinking in and around the station area.
The purpose of this personal blogsite is to pass Ward or Thurrock related information across, and to allow residents comment on plans or proposals. Residents suggestions for developments in the community are certainly very welcome.

I am all for the think 25 policy in terms of filtering out under 18's (or older teens who may be buying for younger friends), after all kids look older than they are sometimes, especially made up girls, but for a thirty year old woman who could (possibly) pass for 25 in the right light, it's a tad annoying to be refused cigarettes! COMMON SENSE PEOPLE!!!
