I presume with the membership that non-members with licences will still be listed, once the councils move and pass the info on, or will it just be members of the SLWCN that will be promoted as licenced window cleaners.

We don't live in a perfect world guys -

About 12.5% of car drivers ( 1 in are either/some of the following:-

Uninsured
Untaxed
Unlicensed (or driving alone on provisional only)
No MOT
Red Diesel

Or a mixture of the above.

I would pay for a license (say £50) that covered me in England and Wales (so I could nick a bit of Tosh's work over the Severn Bridge  ) just so I could put it on my card and help reassure householders and give me a business edge.

I think I'll knock up a "susstifcut" in Microsoft Word and put "Voluntarily Licensed Window Cleaner for all Bristol Postcodes" on it to show my custies along with my PLI.

good on you, make your own up.....it will do the trick until the proper legally recognised official government backed lawful license comes in to effect

Non members will be on without details, members can advertise if they are looking for more work. This is also followed up with listings in the Yellow Pages under SLWCN banner which is more publicity.

We are also trying to be linked with all Council websites and Police websites.

Right enough from me.

Cheers
