MARKET TOWN TAVERNS' CHRISTMAS CHARITY APPEAL

Motion Text

That this House supports Market Town Taverns' charitable drive to raise funds for the housing and homelessness charity Shelter; notes the invaluable work of Shelter in giving advice and advocacy to people in housing need; commends Market Town Taverns in running 10 excellent pubs in the north of England with a real commitment to locally brewed real ale and for its initiative in asking all customers to donate 50 pence over the Christmas season; recognises the current economic instability in the pub trade; and thanks both those operating the campaign and those who have supported the campaign and donated money to Shelter during this difficult time.
