At the first branch gathering of the year, Peter Page-Mitchell, Sussex Area Organiser and branch member, was presented with the Branch Campaigner of the Year Award for 2018. It was his idea to set out to visit and score beers in as many different branch pubs as possible in 2018, a challenge which another member took up. Although in the final analysis Peter did not manage the most pubs, he received the award for originating the idea which played a significant part in ensuring that a record number of different branch pubs received a ‘CAMRA visit’ during the year, which in turn helped the branch in keeping WhatPub as up to date as possible. Unfortunately we do not have a pictorial record of this presentation.
