Beckley & Area Community Benefit Society Ltd Chairman's Report To
Beckley & Area Community Benefit Society Ltd Chairman’s Report to the Annual Members Meeting, 28 November 2018 Introduction: The introduction to my first Beckley & Area Community Benefit Society (BACBS) annual report, in November 2017, bears repetition with only minor editing: ‘BACBS was established in September 2016 in order to purchase The Abingdon Arms for the benefit of the community, and to secure its future as a thriving community-owned pub. It is now a welcoming free house which serves a range of local beers, good quality wine and soft drinks, and excellent freshly-cooked food prepared using locally sourced ingredients when possible. Our vision was, and is, for The Abingdon Arms to be at the heart of our community, accessible to all, a place to meet people, exchange ideas, and come together for recreational and cultural activities. In this way, BACBS aims to support a friendly, welcoming and cohesive community’. The Society’s second year of operation has seen both consolidation and exciting progress. BACBS is in good health, as will be evident from the Treasurer’s and Secretary’s reports. Highlights of the year include: The Abingdon Arms – Aimee Bronock, Joe Walton and their excellent front of house and kitchen teams have consolidated, then extended on the promise with which they commenced their tenancy of The Abingdon Arms in June 2017. It is once again a welcoming and vibrant country pub, serving both the local community and increasing numbers of visitors from further afield. The food, drinks and warm welcome they offer are greatly appreciated! In astonishingly short order, our tenants have achieved prestigious awards which affirm the quality of their stewardship of our community pub. -
