The highlight of October was the pub’s annual Beer Festival - our busiest weekend since the community purchased the SWR! (Image) A massive thank you to everyone who supported it. We sold 849 pints of the (20) guest ales and 279 servings of pub food! Everyone also enjoyed live music from Scott Phillips and Jake Yarwood over the weekend. The feedback was very positive. A huge thank you to Elaine and Owen, two of our hard working volunteers, who put so much time and effort into organising the festival and everyone else – staff and volunteers - who worked so hard to make it a success. We’re already planning next year’s! This month the pub was also very proud to feature in Devon Life magazine – a super four page article by journalist Fran McElhone entitled ‘Saving Sir Walter’ detailed our East Devon pub’s journey and successes since it was purchased by the community, in a difficult environment of declining pub numbers.
The charity fundraising from Jim’s Big Quiz raised a great £266 for FORCE the superb charity supporting those locally with cancer.
