Britain’s pubs are worth up to £30 billion in wellbeing value to communities across the UK. But rising costs and high taxes are putting pressure on pubs that bring people together.

This Week of Action, join the campaign today and tell your MP to keep pubs open and pints affordable.

ALNWICK MEN’S TALK IS BACK THIS WEDNESDAY 💙 after a great first session

We had a great turnout for our first session last week, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. It was relaxed, positive and full of good conversation.

A big thank you to Andrew Fletcher for getting the group off the ground, and to Chloe Ayre from Co-op Funeralcare alnwick for donating tea and coffee for everyone who comes along. We really appreciate it.

We can’t wait to welcome everyone back, and hopefully see some new faces too. There’s no pressure to speak. Come along for a cuppa, a listen and a bit of company.

📍 The Fleece Inn, Alnwick
🗓 Wednesday 30 September
🕗 8pm

Blokes need bloke time.
