30
pub closures per week |
Reports
by the British Beer and |
Pub
Association (BBPA). They say that 2% of City
pubs have closed within the last 6 month period.
These are very worrying statistics, though
we cannot verify these figures it is obvious
just looking round Nottingham at the pubs
closed down, being turned into shops or take-aways,
often waiting to be flattened to make way
for yet more supermarkets or flats, that pubs
are closing at an alarming rate. Yes we should
all be worried at this alarming loss of our
community pubs, the foundations of our communities.

nottingham camra
takes awards |
| |
At the recent AGM
& members weekend Nottingham CAMRA branch
took both the best newsletter award for the
Nottingham Drinker and Steve Westby received
the first ever CAMRA campaigner of the year
award. |
| |
|
 |
|
 |
|
| |
The long awaited
award for best newsletter is due to the hard
work of David Mason over recent years in bringing
the publication to the high standard we see
today, and recently by Spyke (Peter Golding)
and the editorial team.
The Campaigner of the Year is a new national
award this year and it was well deserved by
our very own Steve Westby for his work not only
with LocAle but for the years of hard work in
organising not only our own beer festival but
several others including Newark. His contributions
to the ND and the brewery section of the good
beer guide are just some other of his achievements
over the years. |
