Enniskillen pub Charlie's Bar has been recognised as a 'Community Pub Hero' at a recent awards ceremony in London.

Charlie's Bar was the winner of PubAid's 'Community Support Hero' in the Ireland region. 

Manager Una Burns picked up the award in London this week. In a social media post, Miss Burns said: "A night to remember in the Houses of Parliament, being presented with the award for ‘Community Support Hero’ Ireland.

"It is fair to say pubs are much more than simply a place to have a drink."

The Community Support Hero Award recognises licensees who help their communities.

It aims to recognise pubs which are a ‘good neighbour’ to their community.

Last year, a viral Christmas advertisement created by Charlie's Bar - featuring an elderly man who is alone at Christmas, before he befriends a younger couple and their dog - captured the hearts of people around the world.

Following on from the success of their viral video,  Charlie's Bar created merch and raised £23,000 for Age NI and the South West Age Partnership.
