Charity profile: Annie Hoddle from Sebastian’s Action Trust

You’ll be aware by now, Bracknell Ale & Cider Festival is supporting a number of charities this year following our link up with ticketing website TicketPass.

What this means, is that for every ticket sold for the 2022 Bracknell Ale & Cider Festival, TicketPass donate 50% of their admin fee to a charity you can choose from our list. We’ve included a lot of local ones including Thames Valley Air Ambulance, Berkshire Search & Rescue Dogs, Thames Hospice and more.

As part of this link-up, we thought we’d find out a little more about the charities, what the money you raise means to them and of course, their favourite tipple. This time we speak to Annie Hoddle from Sebastian’s Action Trust.
