​Prize Draw – Sunday 2nd November


On Sunday 2nd November, don’t miss your chance to win some fantastic prizes in our exciting Prize Draw!

Supporting Local History - One Pint at a Time!

At our recent beer festival, we raised £220 for a cause close to our hearts. Through sales of our special charity brew, “Bombs Away”, festival-goers joined us in supporting the 389th Bomb Group Museum in Hethel. Every time someone ordered the beer, we rang an authentic air raid siren — a fitting tribute to the site’s World War II roots.

The 389th Bomb Group housed RAF and USAAF personnel during the Second World War and now operates as a museum, run entirely by dedicated volunteers.

​We’re proud to help preserve this vital piece of local and military history.

Supporting our Community

We are more than just a social club - we are an active part of the Wymondham community, working closely with charities and local groups throughout the year. From hosting afternoon teas for the towns older folk with cake, games, raffles, and classic film screenings, to running sponsored sleep outs at the Town Cross to raise funds for homeless charities, we are always looking for ways to give back.

Our charity initiatives include regular Macmillan cake sales, warm banks during the colder months, and charity quiz nights where half the winnings are donated to good causes. You’ll also find collection boxes on the bar for various local and national charities.

​
We’re proud to be the regular practice venue of the City of Norwich Pipe Band too - keeping community traditions alive and well.
