A Belfast co-operative brewing company is to become the new operator of the John Hewitt pub on the city’s Donegal Street.
Boundary Brewing, which has been producing a range of beers since 2017, will run the bar on behalf of its owner, the Belfast Unemployed Resource Centre. It is a charity which offers support, education and facilities to the unemployed and other groups suffering from social and economic disadvantage
The organisation opened The John Hewitt in 1999 as a means to raise funds, naming the social enterprise pub after the late poet who opened the adjoining resource centre in 1985.
