The Bath city centre policing team have carried out drug trace testing at Labyrinth Nightclub.

The Labyrinth nightclub in Bath

On the evening of Friday, 16th May, assisted by police colleagues from the outlying areas of the city, the team carried out the operation at the club at North Parade.

Such operations are designed to detect and prevent drugs commonly used in drink-spiking.

More than 50 people were tested entering the venue, none of whom returned any trace for drugs.

The operation was part of the police commitment to making the night-time economy a safe place for everyone, with a particular focus on ensuring that women and girls are free from harassment, violence and other offences.

Police officers also spoke to customers and offered personal safety advice.

They said: “We’d like to thank the venue and staff for their collaboration in hosting us for this deployment.”
