Pub divides opinion by ordering children to stay seated after 'number of minor injuries'

A pub has come under fire for bringing in a new policy which insists kids must stay seated at their tables after a number of minor injuries. The Victoria Park pub, in Bristol, said they had to bring in the new policy after a health and safety evaluation which saw children who were not sitting at their tables get injured.

The pub claims it still welcomes all guests, including little ones, but the new rules have left some parents -especially those who have children with special needs- feeling unwelcome from the pub.

The Victoria Park posted the announcement on its website and on an A-board outside the inn, reports Bristol Live.
