Another successful charity event to honour our summer charity challenge of Around the World in 80 Days with Cheshire Cat Pubs. Riders raised £510 on the day which will be equally divided between our two chosen charities, Action Against Hunger and Hospitality Action. The riders travelled from The Church Inn to The Cholmondeley Arms and then onto Staffordshire to our pubs The Fitzherbert Arms and The Mainwaring Arms, they then travelled back into Cheshire to The Three Greyhounds Inn, ending at The Roebuck Inn and The Bull’s Head for a well-deserved pint and a burger. The rained stayed away and the teams across all our pubs welcomed the cyclists with nibbles and drinks. We were delighted that everyone raised to the challenge and we look forward to welcoming everyone back next year. A big thank you goes to Boutinot wines and Adam Youds for organising such a successful event

This week the teams across our 7 pubs took part in a fun, yet competitive 5-a-side tournament at Wilmslow Phoenix Sports Club in Styal to increase their steps and raise money for our summer charity challenge of Around the World in 80 days with Cheshire Cat Pubs. We raised money from our two chosen charities; Hospitality Action and Action Against Hunger, through cash donations and our Just Giving pages.

Our first charity event was a success with a great turn out! We walked from The Fitzherbert Arms and The Mainwaring Arms and explored some beautiful Staffordshire countryside along the way., It was so lovely to have the team and the local community join us, even though it was bright and early on a Sunday morning. The weather held off and we were accompanied by many dogs who and our fabulous Assistant Manager of The Mainwaring Arms, Sophie, lead the way in style!

Our chosen charities:

Hospitality Action Hospitality is a stressful industry, with long hours, high pressure environments and physically demanding work. Injuries, mental health problems and addiction are sadly a feature of modern life in the hospitality trade. That’s where Hospitality Action steps in. They work to provide hospitality workers with financial, physical and psychological support to help them overcome adversity and get back to work as quickly as possible 

Action Against Hunger We have enough food to feed everyone on earth yet 3 billion people can’t get the food they need. Poverty, conflict and inequality keep life-giving food out of reach. Action Against Hunger are dedicated to providing children with the nutrition they need to fulfil their potential and make a lasting change in their community. They do this by detecting, treating and preventing malnutrition in children so they can regain their health and build a better future. 

How can you donate?

The Roebuck Inn in Mobberley, has donated £1,000 to the local village church after being shortlisted in the Community Hero category at the 2021/22 Great British Pub Awards.

The funding has come from category sponsor Coca-Cola, which has given money to all six shortlisted pubs, to help them continue with the community work that got them to the final.

When the coronavirus pandemic hit, Roebuck Inn owners Tim Bird and his wife and business partner Mary McLaughlin, wanted to help their local community, so they set up the Mobberley Pub Hub, with two team members, to provide a safe haven where people could come and collect takeaway food and much more.

The service was extremely popular and grew from grocery boxes and freshly prepared meals to heat at home, to a ‘shrub hub’ selling plants and the creation of a ‘Hub’ shop, that featured local produce and wine, which still exists today.

Now restrictions have eased, the Roebuck Inn team are looking for new ways to keep helping the community. Attention has turned to Mobberley Parish Church, St. Wilfrid’s, which has also played a crucial role in keeping people connected throughout the pandemic.

In 2021 the church purchased a property in the village centre to provide a safe space for local people to come together. The property, now called The Beacon, recently opened to the public.

There are plans to install a community café and run a parents and tots group, a dementia choir, a homework club, a men’s mental health group and a youth drop-in facility.

Tim Bird, Co-Owner of The Roebuck Inn commented: “We are immensely grateful for the recognition we have received through the Great British Pub Awards and from Coca-Cola. Our team work tirelessly for the good of the Roebuck and our local community, and we could not be prouder of them.

“The donation from Coca-Cola will go to our beloved Mobberley Parish Church and its Reverend, Ian Blay. The church plays a big part in our community, and we are pleased that the donation will be able to support the new Beacon facility.”

Holly Firmin, Senior Community Partnerships Manager at Coca-Cola added: “It’s been so inspiring to see how pubs and their customers have stepped up to support local people during the pandemic – despite many facing real challenges themselves.

“We’re thrilled to be able to help the team at The Roebuck Inn continue their support for people of Mobberley. Funding this donation is our way of saying a huge well done and thank you!”
