Independents DayThe Cheshire Brewhouse — led by brewer and SIBA North West director Shane Swindells — is dubbing February 24 Independents Day at the brewery, and is encouraging other independent craft brewers across the UK to join in with the event by running brewery tours and open days.

The Cheshire Brewhouse will be running an open day with brewery tours throughout the day, has a local bikers group coming with a mini bike show, and a local mountain bike club showing their bikes, too, all in an effort to raise money for local charities.

At 6pm, Shane has also vowed to have his hair shaved off to raise money for cancer treatment for a young Congleton Mum.

Shane and the Cheshire Brewhouse are asking as many independent brewers as possible to do the same on February 24, inviting their local community into their brewery and raising money for good causes.

Any breweries interested in joining in with Independents Day are asked to email Shane
