- Champion Beer Of Britain 2026 Competition
Monday 23 September 2024
It's that time of year again when we ask local CAMRA members to select the beers they would like to see go forward for the national Champion Beer of Britain competition. This represents the first part of a 3-round contest, but it all starts with our members, who after all are probably members because they like drinking real ale.
The voting process is now open and you have until 4th November to make your nominations at:
There is plenty of information here and an easy step to step guide how to vote. Everyone is able to choose to vote for any eligible beers and can nominate up to five beers in each of the categories, though there is no requirement to vote for all five beers in each category, you can vote for less beers as you wish.
You need to be CAMRA member to take part, but can join at https://join.camra.org.uk.
- Autumn Budget - Contact Your MP Now!
Monday 16 September 2024
The new Government is presenting its first ever Budget on 30 October. With a new Chancellor and hundreds of new MPs, it is really important that as many people as possible contact their local MP to help make sure the Budget delivers help for consumers, beer and pubs.
Contact your MP with our campaigning tool here: https://ow.ly/BXsZ50Tn4Vn
We are calling for a further reduction in draught beer and cider duty, a reform of the Business Rates system in England, a VAT cut for hospitality businesses, a review of the definition of cider and a 50% juice minimum in cider, as well as the removal of unnecessary rules that prevent sales of takeaway pints.
Read our press release here: https://ow.ly/l0xw50Tn4Vm
CAMRA has already sent the Treasury groundbreaking new research that shows a cut in the tax paid on pints in pubs would create thousands of new jobs and put millions back into the economy – but we need your help to make sure your MP knows too.
Our simple, easy-to-use E-lobby tool means it only takes a minute to contact your MP and ask them to back a package of measures to support pubs and pubgoers across the UK.
