BBBFarleys are pleased to announce we will be sponsoring Blackburn Beer Festival this summer. Now in its second year, the event will take place over May Day bank holiday weekend (1st-3rd May) in aid of local charity Blackburn Youth Zone.

Partner and head of Commercial Law, Ian Liddle, commented on the event: “We’re looking forward to building last years success, it’s a great event for Blackburn and we are extremely proud to be headline sponsors once again.

“As a business that has a strong commercial relationship within the local area it’s a great opportunity for us to get involved in helping give back to the community and have fun doing it.”

Local brewery Thwaites are getting involved with the event again and Accountancy firm PM+M are also signed up as headline sponsors.

The three day festival, to be held at Blackburn Rugby Club, will see a selection of the finest locally brewed ales come to Blackburn. All proceeds from the event will be donated directly to Blackburn Youth Zone, the town’s city centre hub for young people aged 8 to 18 years old. The art youth club facility is dedicated to helping young people change their prospects and look forward to a positive future.

There are still plenty of opportunities for you to get involved in the event, for further information visit http://www.blackburnyz.org/blackburn-beer-festival or contact Vicky Profit on 01254 292000.
