PubAid’s 2025 awards are organised in association with drinks wholesaler Matthew Clark and the All-Party Parliamentary Beer Group. Publicans can enter their own premises, and MPs can also nominate pubs in their constituencies.

“I was honoured to attend the awards last year and meet so many dedicated publicans to hear about how they support their local communities,” said Tonia Antoniazzi. “I am calling out for all MPs to nominate at least one pub in their constituency for these important awards.”

The awards relaunched last year with more categories and regional winners. This resulted in a record number of entries, with the finalists and winners honoured at an award ceremony at the Houses of Parliament.

Co-founder of PubAid, Des O’Flanagan, said: “We’re aiming for another successful year. It always humbles me to hear so many amazing entries from pubs who are doing such wonderful work for their communities. I know that the judges found it very inspiring to learn about the great work done in our industry.

“We’re here to celebrate what publicans do to support their local areas and charities in whatever way they can. It’s not about the amount of money that people raise or running the most sport teams, it’s about the creative ways that landlords support and the impact that this has within the community.”
