The AGM was held at the Albatross Club in Bexhill. We are grateful to them for again hosting this event and making us most welcome. The occasion was also used to present the Albatross with our Club of the Year Award, plus another for 10 consecutive years in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide. Pictured are our chairman Peter Adams, centre, with Dorothy, the chairman and Jody, the steward, from the club.






After many years as vice chairman and festival organiser, Phil Cozens has stepped down from those roles but will continue as an active branch member. Peter Adams presented Phil with an award to acknowledge the very hard work and dedication he has given, particularly as festival organiser. Peter said that Phil’s work as Vice Chair and Branch Contact, often unseen, had been invaluable to him. There's no doubt that our local festivals, Beer and Cider by the Sea and Eastbourne Winter Garden have benefitted hugely from Phil's work and knowledge.




Our annual award for champion beer scorer went to Peter Adams. Phil Cozens presented him with the award.
