A series of pubs are appealing for customers to donate advent calendars this festive season.

24 community pubs across the West Midlands, including Worcestershire and the Black Country, are asking for donations to give everyone the chance to enjoy the countdown to Christmas.

The pubs are part of Proper Pubs, a community wet-led operator division of Admiral Taverns.

People are being asked to drop off advent calendars at their local by Friday, November 24.

The calendars will then be given to various community charities.

Over the past two years, the chain has donated nearly 40,000 Christmas selection boxes to charities.

Pubs taking part in the initiative include the Castle in Dudley, the Greenlands in Redditch, the Ashwood Inn and Jolly Crispin in Stourbridge, and the Goodrest Tavern and Old Greyhound in Worcester.
