A football supporters' club is celebrating after receiving a prestigious Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) Golden Award.
Leyton Orient Supporters Club in Brisbane Road is one of only 32 boozers across to receive the prize.
The awards celebrate the organisation's 50th anniversary.
CAMRA’s Awards Director Gary Timmins said: “This anniversary comes on the heels of an incredibly difficult time for the industry after a year of lockdowns and restrictions. I hope the teams behind the winning pubs and club and their locals will take this award as appreciation for all the hard work involved in running the venues, over the decades and especially now.
" Nominations were submitted by our members and consumers, which says a lot about the support and impact they have had. Winners have been chosen for their successes in standing the test of time; for being convivial, characterful and community-focused, and of course for consistently pouring great pints. I applaud these venues for their dedication, for being community stalwarts."
