CAMRA comment on pubs reopening in England

Release date: June 23, 2020

Responding to the Prime Minister’s announcement on the reopening of pubs in England from 4 July, Tom Stainer, Chief Executive of the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) said: 

“Getting down to the pub for a pint with friends and family has been one of the things people have missed the most during lockdown, so it is fantastic news that people in England can start returning to their locals from 4 July. 

“Understandably, this comes with a responsibility to do so safely and responsibly in line with the government’s guidance. CAMRA is urging all pub-goers to follow the rules so that they can keep themselves, other pub-goers, and bar staff safe. 

“On recording customer details to help testing and tracing, this seems to be above and beyond what is being asked of other types of businesses. The Government need to make sure that this doesn’t disadvantage pubs and that the privacy of pub-goers is properly protected. 

“Not being able to go to our local has made us realise just how important pubs are to communities, and in tackling loneliness and social isolation. That is why we need a second wave of financial support to ensure that all pubs – both those operating at reduced trade and those that cannot open safely under social distancing  – can survive the next few weeks and thrive in the weeks and months ahead.”
