Last Ullage
Due to health issues, Tim Thomas resigned as editor of Ullage in October after 15 years in the role. Anyone interested in taking over the role of Ullage editor will be offered full support.
He has made Ullage an outstanding newsletter bringing you news, information and stories about pubs, breweries and events in our area. We owe him a very big vote of thanks for all the work he has done.
We do need to find someone to step in as editor to allow us to continue publishing Ullage on a regular basis. If you are interested, I can reassure you that you won’t be on your own as you’ll have the support of an excellent deputy editor and members of the Branch committee. Contact Mike if you think this is something you can do.

Demands of the role need not be onerous as the magazine contents can be trimmed to reflect the time that you are able to commit to the role.
In the meantime, we will be producing this new publication:-
