Heart of Stffordshire branch members are invited to vote for our branch pubs of the year

Every year we award prizes to the best pubs in our branch area in two categories: Urban and Rural.

The first stage is to invite our members to vote for their favourites – you can vote for up to five pubs. 

If you vote for five pubs, your first choice will be awarded five points, your second four points and so on down to your fifth choice which will score one point. If you vote for only one pub, it will be awarded one point.

When voting please state the town or village where the pub is located, or your vote may not count.

Once the votes are counted judges will be appointed to visit and assess the six finalists (the top three from the Urban and Rural categories). 

The outcome will be an Urban and a Rural Pub of the Year (PotY); the highest scorer will be our overall PotY and enter into the competition to find the Staffordshire PotY.

Any member can volunteer to be a judge but note you must undertake to visit all six pubs (to ensure consistency) or your judging will not count.

The branch committee would encourage ALL branch members to vote.
