Pilgrim's Progress


Branch business meeting to review our campaigning and what's happening at local pubs and breweries. This will be our final branch meeting before the branch AGM. All CAMRA members welcome.
Held in a conference room at The Pilgrim's Progress Hotel, Midland Road, Bedford. Meet in the pub bar at 18:45 to buy drinks before we take the hotel lift to a conference room on the second floor. As it's Wetherspoon's, bring a few CAMRA discount vouchers, Members who arrive late should report to hotel reception one floor up for directions to the conference room. We will try to complete the business in good time for a social drink in the bar afterwards. For more details of the venue, click the meeting header, then the underlined venue link above.
