A few words About us
The All-Party Parliamentary Beer Group (link to APPG Register HERE) was set up in 1993 and is one of the largest and most active All-Party Parliamentary Group in Westminster.
Every MP has, on average, 3 breweries in their local constituency and 80 pubs, providing employment, training and skills, and supporting local communities through fundraising, cultural events, and being a welcoming social space to meet family and friends.
The aims of the Group are:
- Champion the wholesomeness and enjoyment of beer and the unique role of the pub in UK society;
- Increase understanding of the social, cultural and historic role of brewing and pubs in the UK and their value to tourism;
- Broaden recognition of the contribution of brewing and pubs to employment and to the UK's economy;
- Promote understanding of the social responsibility exercised by the brewing and pub industries;
- Support the UK's brewing industry worldwide;
- Promote a positive future for beer and the pub.
