Drinkers at this year's Rutland CAMRA Beer Festival raised over £1,100 for LOROS.
The festival at the museum each June celebrates real ales, gins, ciders and perries and always raises money for a local good cause. Neil Broad from Rutland CAMRA says they raised the money in several different ways.
‘We have a store selling Prosecco and soft drinks and the profits from that go to charity. We run a raffle for the charity and then as people leave the festival they have the option of either cashing in their glass and their unused beer tokens or donating them to charity. And amazing where people have had a few beers, they're often quite generous. So we get quite a lot of raised for charity and then on top of that, Darren Hayward, who runs CTA training Academy in Oakham and provides first aid cover for our festival, and has done for the last three years, very generously donated his entire fee for the festival to LOROS, which was an incredible gesture’.
