Charity Beer & Gin Festival 2020 – Postponed

It is with great sadness that the decision has now been made to cancel our charity beer festival due to take place on the weekend of 1st – 3rd May at Aylsham Town Hall.  The COVID-19 situation continues to develop and in light of recent government announcements, this is the only and correct course of action.  The wellbeing of our team, the attendees and the community are of paramount importance.

 

The positive news is that we have provisionally agreed with Aylsham Town Council to hold a weekend date in late August to host our beer festival if the situation clears up and the government announces the current restrictions on mass gatherings are lifted.  We would like to say a huge thank you to our sponsors and all parties involved to make this event possible every year.  The team are fully committed to put another event on this year if at all feasible and humanly possible.

 

The festival aside, as per the values of Round Table, we would encourage the community to pull together and look after family, friends and neighbours during these uncertain times.  We also place a massive thanks to those from our own community assisting on the frontline as they are true heroes.  Please adhere to government restrictions for the good of us all so we can get back to where we need to be in the shortest time possible.

 

We appreciate the importance of cash flow to all businesses, large and small, so please if you have already donated to us then respond to this email with your bank details and we will refund at the earliest opportunity.  Please bear with our us and we will aim to have these all settled by the end of the weekend at the latest (if you are prompt with response).

 

All of us at Aylsham Round Table wish you, family and friends the very best health and fortune through the coming months.

 

Best regards

 

James Marks, Chairman

Aylsham & District Round Table
