Overview
If you want to collect money or sell articles in any street or public place within Portsmouth, for the benefit of charitable or other purposes then you must hold a street collection permit issued to you by Portsmouth City Council under the Street Collections Regulations.
It is an offence for any person to collect money or sell articles without the benefit of a permit and/or to breach the adopted regulations.
Within one month after the collection you will be required to forward a statement detailing the list of collectors, the amount collected and the expenses and payments incurred.
