Sample ales and raise money for charity

AN ANNUAL beer festival returns to fundraise for a local cancer trust.

The 16th Portchester Beer Festival will raise money for the Wessex Cancer Trust which has six cancer support centres across the region and provide specialist counsellors to help deal with the emotional impact of cancer.

Centre Manager Carol Mertens said: ‘Portchester Beer Festival is an established event in the local community providing a fun filled evening showcasing the best of local and regional ales but what is so special about the event is the money we raise for local charities.’
