Please bear a thought for our staff. This festival is organised and run on an entirely voluntary basis by branch members. No-one is being paid, and every member of staff is giving up their time to help out. Why not join CAMRA at the products & membership stand, and play a part in future festivals, branch meetings, brewery visits and socials?
