£31,000 Donated To Local Worthy Causes In 7 Years!

Fundraising is one of the primary objectives of the Wedmore Real Ale Festivals.

How we make money
We raise money in a number of different ways. Obviously we put a margin on the beer we sell, to increase profits the barrels of beer are also sponsored by business. We sell an onsite food consession.  A raffle and auction provides additional revenues.  Everyone that you see working at the WRAF is a volunteer and gives their time for free. To boost profits even more, quaffers are encouraged to donate their glass deposits at the end of the night.  If you still have any money when you leave, we will mug you in the street outside......
