2 Welcome Hello and welcome to the 3 rd Annual South Notts Real Ale Festival. Showcasing 60 real ales, real ciders and perry mostly from local breweries and producers, the festival has already become a key date in the local community calendar. The festival is a charity event to raise funds for our hosts, Nottingham Moderns Rugby Club and the children s charity C.R.Y. (Cardiac Risk in the Young). The organisers would like to thank all of the sponsors, volunteers, friends of the festival and bands for their support, particularly Ray Kirby and Ray Blockley from Nottingham CAMRA for sourcing some amazing beers and ciders. Finally, we would like to thank FHP Living who are the main sponsors of the event. Without their support, the event would not be taking place.
