THE PART WE PLAY
Join our next Community Litter Pick and work towards becoming a shareholder in our Community Cask — just four or more litter picks and you’re in.
Why We Started Our Community Litter Picks
Back in 2017, as the Distillery was taking shape, we decided to start a local community litter pick. Building a community and bringing people along on our journey has always been a priority for us. The idea was simple — do something positive for our environment, together.
Founder Max has always returned from runs and walks with armfuls of litter, so this is a cause close to our hearts. Running regular picks while growing a small business is no easy feat, but we’re committed to it. Over the coming months, we hope to team up with local pubs to host more litter picks across the area — with a goal of completing at least three in 2025.
Become a Co-Owner in Our Community Cask
To make your efforts even more rewarding, we’ve donated a 100-litre community cask of whisky to the cause. Join four or more of our litter picks and you’ll become a co-owner. We’ll partially bottle it in 2026 to celebrate 10 years since the business began — so there’s plenty of time to get involved and earn your share.
Why It Matters
We’re lucky to be surrounded by beautiful countryside, ancient woodland, and areas with SSSI status (Site of Special Scientific Interest). These are landscapes worth protecting — and caring for together.
Come along, make a difference, and be part of something lasting.
