🚨 Just public notice 🚨

for you guys who think we make rules up for our own amusement.

We have been handed a new complaint from Bexley Council today, we’re not sure if this from you our neighbourhood that doesn’t want a great family local pub and preferred the fighting and Nonchalant approach of the past

or the individuals group with kids or without we have barred for not abiding by the rules/laws who continue to make complaints about them selfs (we all know who you are) ☺️

So, when we ask you and your children to leave at/before 9pm just be sensible humans and have respect for us & those around like we do you.. it is for saftey.

We have worked and continue to work really hard inside and outside the business to show we are more than approachable our contact details are out there in the neighbourhood any problems please come and see us we are the same people who turn a blind eye to you and your contractors using our car park , The same people who host your family occasions happy or sad.

So please we really appreciate all of you and love being the family hub of Bexley ✌🏻 BUT *feed your children before 8:30pm it’s not our fault you’ve been out all day* abide by and respect the pub we have worked hard to provide for you it’s not cheap - please do be considerate to us and our neighbours 😊

Thankyou to everyone that has understood this gracefully and continues to support us ⚓️

On a more positive note we have a game day pass to all get involved in - come & see us for more details 🍻 ⚽️

Newly married couple Gareth and Jamie Furness have take the over The Bay Horse Inn in Pickering. 🔔

The pub has received a £400,000 investment and Gareth says it has been very well received by locals. 😃

“We are seeing more locals returning to the pub, faces that haven't been seen here for many years and we are seeing them on a regular basis... The refurb has really put The Bay Horse Inn back on the map and firmly at the heart of the Pickering community.” ❤️

Well done to everyone involved in this brilliant transformation 👏

The last two weeks’ inspirational double Grand Idea event winners show how integral pubs are to their communities. Congratulations to:

🏆 The Duke of Cumberland, Kendal. The team raised a staggering £3,750 for Anthony Nolan Stem Cell research through Sam Fest. The event was held in memory of local resident Sam Roberts, who sadly passed away from stem cell cancer just days before his wedding. They hosted live music all day, complemented by stalls selling sweets and candyfloss. Guests also enjoyed a darts competition, as Sam was an avid darts player.

🏆 The Cricketers Team, Gillingham, also arranged a charity day. This time it was for a children’s cancer charity. It was a true family event with a bouncy castle, raffle, games, refreshments, stalls and live music from the Jaywalkers rock and pop band. Together they raised an incredible £4,414 for My Shining Star Children’s Cancer Charity.

🏆 The Hen House, Cannock, shared another emotive story. A local, Keith’s father, sadly passed away from Motor Neurone Disease. He asked our MPs to arrange a raffle to raise money for the charity. They turned it into community event, timing it to coincide with the JD Hoe Down, payday weekend and their anniversary. The event supported Motor Neurone Disease charities, exceeded fundraising targets and helped strengthen local connections.

🏆 The Woodlands, St Helens, hosted a sponsored walk, family entertainment and other fundraising activities. The community came together to raise £1,300 for Prostate Cancer UK.

These pubs show what it means to do well by doing good.

Congratulations Murrie 🥂🥳

Our amazing Publican is celebrating 20 years in charge of the Green Tree in Tudhoe 💪

What's the key to running a successful pub for all those years?

🗨️ "It takes a massive amount of effort to stay current, remain profitable and retain staff but we’ve done that by listening. I absolutely adore this pub; I love everything about it from the people to the building itself and I’m not the only one because we have three staff members that have been with us since the day I joined!” 👏

Well done Murrie and everyone at the Green Tree! 🍍
