Greater Manchester Clubs are winners

We are pleased to announce that the Greater Manchester Regional Club of the Year, Dobcross Band Social Club, has made it through to the national finals.

This was announced formally at the Club Mirror Awards Ceremony in Leicester on the 22nd November. The three other finalists are: Cheltenham Motor Club, Marden Village Club (Kent) and Parwich Royal British Legion (Derbyshire). The winner will be announced in late January 2024.

In addition, the recently retired steward of Dobcross Band Social Club, John Holden, received a Long Service Award at the same ceremony for his 39 years of service, including looking after the cellar there so well.

And last but not least, Phil Cowtan, the steward of Ladybarn Social Club, was judged the runner up in CAMRA’s National Club Recognition Award, nominated by Stockport and South Manchester Branch.

Below is a photos of the worthy recipients.
