After they won my Local Pub of the Year Award, I was thrilled to be able to nominate the Jack and Jill for this year's Pub Hero Awards.
Competition has been tough, with over 200 entries, including those from other MPs. But I'm excited to announce that today the Jack and Jill has been named one of six finalists in the 'Community Support Pub Hero' category.
This is an incredible achievement for one of the community's greatest assets and I know even just getting to the finals will mean a lot to the team and wider community.
The awards are jointly organised by the All-Party Parliamentary Beer Group and PubAid and look to celebrate pubs' contributions to their local communities. You can find out more about the awards here: http://bit.ly/3Z7Migx
