Bristol Beer Factory on the hunt for a beer-loving Community Hero this Valentine's Day

Bringing people together and celebrating the city is at the very heart of Bristol Beer Factory’s mission. They firmly believe that when you meet up for a beer, you connect with your people and you build community.

As Sam Burrows, Managing Director, says, ‘Our community means everything to us which is why we donate 2% of every brewery sale to local charities.’ Since May 2023, when they launched their community-giving initiative, their 2% donation has helped raise over £405k for groups making a difference across Bristol.

This Valentines Day, Bristol Beer Factory are giving people the chance to give some BBF LOVE to someone making a difference in their community. Whether it's a teacher, a charity worker, a volunteer, a carer or someone else, anyone can nominate their hero, all it needs to be is someone going the extra mile for Bristol.

A panel of BBF staff will whittle the nominations to name the BBF Community Hero. They will win a BBF Beer Club Membership (which includes a Mixed Case of BBF beer and a 10% discount card FOR LIFE, for every BBF venue) and a private tour of the NEW BREWERY, for up to 10 people, including 3 pints each! Two runners up will each receive a BBF Mixed Case.

Bristol is a vibrant city buzzing with culture, creativity and opportunity. Like the rest of the UK, inequalities are widespread and many people experience significant disadvantage or deprivation. Sam continues, ‘The system is broken and those with the power to make change, are not getting it right. Our community made us who we are and we will always have their back. That’s why we donate 2% from the sale of every keg, cask and can leaving our brewery yard to local charities. Together, we can raise up our city.' 

Nominations should be made using the link below, which also includes the full terms and conditions: https://forms.gle/p7zVL63LvJre7CK97. 

The campaign to find a Community Hero goes live on Valentine’s Day 2025 at 8am via @bristolbeerfactory on Instagram.

Deadline for nominations is 9am Saturday 1 March. Winners will be notified by 5pm Wednesday 5 March.
