Howard Lake | 13 June 2017 | News

A beer produced by a collaboration of brewers will commemorate this weekend’s The Great Get Together events and raise funds for the Jo Cox Foundation.

The Great Get Together Pale Ale has been created, appropriately enough, in a collective effort with the support of Adnams, Arkells, Cliff Quay, Elgoods, Fullers, Harviestoun, Joseph Holts, Joules, J W Lees, Marstons, Palmers, St Austell, Theakstons, Thornbridge and Woodfordes, and social enterprise The Good Beer Co. 

The beer is designed to help people across the UK enjoy their Great Get Togethers with family, friends, colleagues, neighbours and their local community.

The Great Get Together takes place over the weekend of 16-18 June, and is a national initiative in memory of Jo Cox MP to inspire people to hold events to enable neighbours to get to know each other better.

The profits from the Great Get Together Pale Ale will go to the Jo Cox Foundation. This will help support its work to bring together communities across the UK in the spirit of Jo’s words: “we have far more in common than that which divides us.
