Our AGM took place on Thursday 24th April, at the Prince of Wales, 136 Hampton Road, Twickenham at 8pm. As nobody came forward at the meeting to support and help the beer festival committee, the future of the Twickenham Beer and Cider Festival beyond 2009 looks doubtful. If you are interested please get in touch with Brian Kirton.
Festival Committee Jobs Descriptions are currently in preparation and will be available on the Committee page.
Local pub/brewery changes. general gossip, and AGM decisions.
