Audience members helped Brentwood Brewery raise funds for the children’s charity Special needs and Parents (SNAP).

Brentwood Brewery's The Drunkest Showman pantomime raised £160 for the Warley-based charity SNAP.

Michelle Andrews, SNAP's events and marketing manager, said: "Top hats off to the talented team at Brentwood Brewery for raising funds and awareness for SNAP in such an entertaining way.

"The brewery's community spirit is an inspiration and their continued support for our charity is greatly appreciated by the SNAP team and the thousands of families that fundraising like this helps to make a difference to."

The charity in Pastoral Way supports families with children who have special needs.

SNAP ambassador Penny Hollington, joined the panto cast, playing the key role of Buddy the Devil, an evil lager rep.

Head brewer Ethan Kannor added: "SNAP is a good cause very close to all our hearts.

"We know first hand what wonderful work the charity undertakes, working with and supporting the families of children with special needs or disabilities as they have helped us and my son Oakley."
