The Pomona award, which is named after the Roman Goddess of apples, honours a person, group, organisation, idea or concept (where a recipient can be identified) that has made an outstanding achievement, commitment, or contribution to the promotion of real cider or perry.
Nominations are sought annually, closing on 1 August, but the award will only be awarded in years when it is felt there is a suitable candidate.
Elizabeth Pimblett is the 2023 winner of CAMRA’s prestigious Pomona Award for her commitment and dedication to the cider community.
Director of the Museum of Cider in Hereford and co-founder of Cider Women – a group celebrating women involved in all aspects of cider, spanning production, sales, education and advocacy – Elizabeth has been described as a ‘key player’ in Britain’s cider community, representing the UK internationally and shining a light on its historical and cultural importance.
