Amanda, as the local CAMRA Pubs Protection Officer in Wandsworth I have successfully secured ACV status for two pubs in the borough- the first the Castle in Battersea High Street with the support of the local MP Jane Ellison, and the second the Wheatsheaf in Tooting Bec 2 weeks ago As an historic environment & planning professional and CAMRA activist I have been involved with five other successful ACV applications across the country, as well as doing reps at a dozen or more planning appeal hearings and public inquiries (including the Phene Arms and the Cross Keys) on proposals to demolish or convert to residential. I'm also a shareholder in two ACV community pubs. My work on pubs protection for CAMRA resulted in the national Campaigner of the Year 2013 award in April. Please contact me, I should be delighted to talk to you. Dale Ingram dale.ingram@camraswl.org.uk
