Lakes Brew Co has teamed up with the Save Windermere Campaign to help save dying Lake.
Mission: Save Lake Windermere, quite simple really.
Synonymous with the Lakes, the centric focal point for many, Lake Windermere is no doubt one of the most famous landmarks with in the British Isles, featured in TV programs, movies, poems – we could go on and on! Now faced with a huge issue, this famous body of water is dying from pollution caused by discharges of treated and untreated sewage entering the water ways.
This is why, Lakes Brew Co have joined the campaign to Save Windermere, in the one way they are best, by brewing a beer. That beer is Leave no trace, an easy drinking, perfectly hopped light beer that is bursting with citrus and tropical notes, created to raise the importance of embracing the true ethics of their region, their namesake, the outdoors code and one to live by. Lakes Brew Co believe, as conscious humans, we should leave no trace to our environment.
Going forward Lakes Brew Co pledge to donate 10p from every can of Leave No Trace sold to the Save Windermere Campaign.
“Growing up in the Lakes has always meant days, evenings spent in the outdoors, swimming enjoying what we sometimes take for granted having all this on our doorstep, but now with children of my own this campaign and the need for action has really resonated with our brewery. I want my children to be safe and healthy being active in and around the Lakes. If we don’t take this time now to act we will not be able to share the experiences we had with future generations of what it is to truly grow up in the Lakes!” – Michelle Gay, Co Founder of Lakes Brew Co
As a Lake District business the brewery team feel deeply protective of the beautiful area that surrounds them, they spend many days out on/in the bodies of water and on the fells with their families and friends and not only this but the livelihoods like many who inhabit this area depend on ‘The Lakes’, life would drastically change if action is not taken.
“We are incredibly honoured to have partnered with Lakes Brew Co and to have Save Windermere featured on their Leave No Trace beer. As we head towards the general election, we must make a stand for our lake. People now have a choice: either help the campaign achieve its goal of a sewage-free Windermere, protecting our lake forever, or remain quiet whilst United Utilities continues dumping sewage into the lake. It’s just that simple.” – Matt Staniek, Founder Save Windermere
