Once again, our Branch will support the running of the real ale and cider bars. Staff are required at all sessions if you can spare a few hours, so please book through our website.

Our popular games night with a skittles match amongst ourselves. This regular event is on the first Wednesday of the month at the Phipps’ Albion Brewery Bar who have offered a £10 voucher to the monthly winner. If you don’t play skittles, you are still more than welcome at this monthly event and you can always play cards or dominoes instead. Meet at 18:30, starts at 19:00.
