Welcome to the Croydon & Sutton Branch of the Campaign for Real Ale

Commenting on the upcoming announcement of tougher Tier restrictions in England from December 2nd Nik Antona, CAMRA National Chairman, said:

“Publicans across the country will be angry this morning, and they have every right to be. Once again, the hospitality sector is being singled out for further restrictions without evidence. This is a kick in the teeth to the vast majority of publicans who have invested money and time into making their premises COVID–secure, and for the consumers that were using pubs to socialise safely.

“CAMRA is particularly dismayed to see the extension of the ‘substantial meal’ requirement to pubs in Tier 2. Yet again, decision makers are punishing wet-led, community pubs. Publicans now face an excruciating wait for further details on which areas will sit in which Tier – and after that many will have to make agonising decisions about the future of their businesses.

“If the Government wishes to continue with these unfair and un-evidenced plans, it must announce a proper, sector-specific support package or we will see mass pub closures and mass job losses as communities lose their beloved locals forever.”

   

National lockdown in England started on 5 November - we want to help pubs, breweries & cider producers through this.

You can search for beer, cider & perry nearby available for delivery/collection using #Brew2You, and help support local businesses.

CAMRA's mission

CAMRA's mission is to act as champion of the consumer in relation to the UK and European beer and drinks industry. It aims to:

• Maintain consumer rights;
• Promote quality, choice and value for money;
• Support the public house as a focus of community life;
• Campaign for greater appreciation of traditional beers, ciders and perries as part of national heritage and culture;
• Seek improvements in all licensed premises and throughout the brewing industry.

CAMRA also seeks to promote real cider and perry. Like ale, these are traditional British drinks and like ale, the traditional product is very different from the dead version.
