Thank you to St Albans Mayor and her Team for this award which is really for all of the indie shops, pubs, cafés and restaurants that make our city what it is. The charity events couldn’t happen without our amazing Boot team working hard throughout the year and I am so proud to have with us. Thank you to Mandy for your tireless efforts with the pub campaign - legend!

Who would have thought right now we would be accepting an award while our pub is closed and this new way of life makes us feel so detached from reality...

We need to look after each other and ensure that every business in this beautiful City can bounce back and that is why we all work tirelessly as a group of businesses to look after each other and we are closer now than we have ever been before. The independent pubs, cafes, restaurants & shops are all in contact currently working out new innovative ways to get out to you so check on Enjoy St Albans and SHOP LOCAL! Shop St Albans

Our High Street will be back and will be stronger than ever because if there is one thing to come out of this situation it is the profound St Albans Community Spirit and that is why we love to live and work here. It has truly never felt stronger 💙💛💙

We need to remember all the local charities and especially St Albans and District Foodbank who DESPERATELY need supplies! Please please donate where you can.

Also a huge thank you to all the NHS & emergency services for their incredible efforts and for everything St Albans City and District Council is doing to help everyone in the district-it truly is a remarkable effort and you are working so hard. Thank you also to our superb MP Daisy Cooper who has been in touch constantly to support our High Street and pubs throughout this crisis-thank you all 🙏

What a bloody party we will have when we finally get over this situation!

Stay Strong & Stay Safe

Thank you Again 92.6FM Radio Verulam

Having to postpone the award-winning fifth sustainability festival is a sad way to make the front page of the The Herts Advertiser - we are grateful for their support through our festival preparations. We also want to say a big thank-you to our major Community sponsors who believed in what we were doing -without whom we could never even have the vision of the festival - including Octopus Electric Vehicles and St Albans BID

Many thanks for the continued encouragement and support of our Silver Sponsors Aylett Nurseries (check out their online garden shopping during the lockdown) and Green Angel Syndicate https://greenangelsyndicate.com

Thanks also to our lovely Bronze sponsors who were Eat Wholefoods (local deliveries happening now) Burston Garden Centre Extinction Rebellion St Albans Group Population Matters Sherrards Solicitors LLP Virtual Office Team and St Albans Quakers.

We asked you to #showusyourfritters and you didn’t disappoint

Really hope you enjoyed HATCH @ HOME - next up we’re going to be making a tasty chilli jam (as so many of you couldn’t get it for the fritters 😂)

Stunning, candy coloured pick and mix from Meira T.
Loving the rainbow eternity band stacked with the delicate, vintage inspired amethyst ring. ♥️🌈

Well it’s nice to be able to do anything satisfying in this current climate.
So apart from the soup kitchen and egg store(!) tonight, we were delighted to be able to provide some lovely meals for local charities - namely Open Doors and Winter Beds - with the help of Corker Cars and St Albans BID, plus the fabulous Jordan and Doyle at the pub.
17 tomato soups and 17 gorgeous monkfish curries - BOOM!
Tricky times boys and girls, so it feels good to still have an impact on the community
Enjoy St Albans @savestalbanspubs
