Hypnotism

Hypnotism for entertainment is age restricted, not only for the participants but for anyone in the room during the show

Whilst there are exemptions for licensed medical practitioners, hypnotists should take particular care to ensure that entertainment shows exclude children from the audience

How can the Age Check Certification Scheme help hypnotists?

We test that age check systems work. We do this through audits, test purchasing and mystery shopping. We also provide the training that you need for your staff and all of the industry standard signage and materials for a professional approach.

Why do I have to get this done?

Local laws place obligations on entertainment hypnotists to take steps to prevent the underage supply of age restricted goods. The penalties for failing to comply can be substantial including the forced closure of your business. You can find out more about the local laws that apply here.

What posters and materials do I need to be compliant?

You may be required to display certain posters or warnings in relation to particular products. Our shop has all of the materials, posters, badges, signs and policies that you need to comply with local laws.

What training do I need for our staff?

As a minimum, you should regularly remind your staff of the rules concerning age restricted goods. However, to be fully protected, you should put your staff through a structured training programme, as a part of when they start work with you. This training programme should be using certified materials and recorded.
