ILKLEY-based telecoms provider, Talk Straight, has been revealed as the headline sponsor for the 5th annual Addingham Beer Festival on Friday and Saturday.

The celebration of real ale, held at the Memorial Hall in Addingham, has received sponsorship from Talk Straight for the third year running, and raises funds for worthy local causes, having donated £11,500 across 17 groups in 2014.

Talk Straight managing director, David Tindall, said: “It’s a pleasure to be able to support worthy community events like the Addingham Beer Festival, which brings local people together and raises valuable funds to support important causes in Addingham.

“As a proud Yorkshire company, we’re always delighted to support our local community. With beers from so many reputable breweries across Yorkshire and further afield, we look forward to enjoying an excellent pint or two this weekend!”

Founded in 2007 by business partners Tim Sedgwick and David Tindall, Talk Straight provides telecoms and internet services to more than 1,000 organisations across the country and employs 45 people from its head office in Ilkley.

A few tickets remain for anyone that wants to go along to the event. Visit addinghambeerfestival.co.uk for details.
