This isn’t entirely gratuitous, because the Casked Crusader Greg Mulholland’s successful Fair Deal for your local campaign has been shortlisted for an award, in the Public Affairs category of the PR Week Awards.

The Wharfedale Observer has the story:

Mr Mulholland said: “It is a huge honour for us to be nominated for such a major national award and make it on to the shortlist.
