HELPERBY BEER FESTIVAL

Being a charity allows us to apply for many more grants and funding but as importantly ensures that everything we do can be scrutinised and is transparent. The Helperby Beer Festival is the main fundraising arm of the charity and will continue as normal; all monies generated throughout the year from the beer festival to pop-up events goes directly to the charity... The people here are friendly and there is a definite sense of community spirit, we have a good primary school, a pub, a lovely church, a well-used village hall and sports association. It is an excellent place to pursue all kinds of outdoor activities... We have a long way to go but have come a long way since the first meeting about a beer festival. We wouldn't have got this far were it not from the overwhelming support we've received from the community, our sponsors, friends and of course our understanding supportive families.
