Bars to create pub jobs for British Pub Week?

Bars across the UK could soon be creating more pub jobs as they prepare for the start of British Pub Week.

Running from October 30th to November 6th, the week aims to celebrate the role that pubs play in the local communities and society as a whole.

"Pubs are so much more than places that sell alcohol, they are unique and they are for all - from the old-timer who visits his pub to see his pals, to the families, couples and friends who meet up for special occasions," founder of British Pub Week, Inez Ward, told Punch Taverns.

She went on to say that uniting all members of the pub industry in preparing for the week had been a "fantastic experience".

Earlier this month, auctioneer Mark Jenkinson & Son told the Star that more pubs will start to be put up for sale in South Yorkshire over the coming months.
