Helen celebrates Best Pub in Britain with Parliamentary motion

North Shropshire MP Helen Morgan has celebrated the ‘outstanding achievement’ of an Oswestry pub who have just been awarded Best Pub in Britain with a Parliamentary motion.

The Bailey Head, in Oswestry, has been crowned by the Campaign for Real Ale as their 2024 Pub of the Year.

Helen Morgan joined over 100 Oswestrians at a ceremony to present the award, which made it onto national television with The One Show covering proceedings.

She has now submitted an Early Day Motion to congratulate Duncan, Grace and their staff for their hard work and service to the community in Oswestry, and call for further support for British pubs.

Helen Morgan, Liberal Democrat MP for North Shropshire, said, “It should come as no surprise to anyone that the best pub in Britain is in the best constituency in Britain – North Shropshire.

“The awards ceremony was a fantastic celebration of our community, with a brilliant attendance from all over Oswestry and beyond. A huge thank you to everyone who came along.

“I’m delighted to have tabled an Early Day Motion to Parliament which I hope will bring some further national attention to the incredible achievement of a very special pub at the heart of our community.”
