Petition to keep Rachael the landlady at The Bay Horse, Catterick Village.

Many of us are strongly supportive of her because she has turned the pub into the thriving heart of our community. Since taking over, The Bay Horse has never been busier, and that is because of her hard work, dedication, and real commitment to local people. In a small village like ours, that kind of leadership matters. It gives people a place to meet, talk, and feel connected.

Her contribution has gone far beyond running a business. During cold weather, she has provided a warm and welcoming space free of charge for anyone who needed it. She has also organised free activities for local children, supported community events, and made sure everyone feels welcome. She has invested in the wellbeing of the whole village.

Losing her would be a major loss to The Bay Horse and to Catterick Village as a whole.

Rachel has been so welcoming and has literally become one of us. Always entertainment and great things going on, the village and regulars can not loose Rachel. The pub will not be the same

I'm signing this petition because, since arriving in the village around the same time as Rachael and Mark, I've seen first-hand the difference they have made. Rachael, alongside her late brother, has always been someone who brings people together. From supporting St Anne's Church from day one to encouraging community events and helping people feel welcome, she has invested so much into village life. Communities are built by people like Rachael—people who give their time, energy, and heart

Racheal has really brought the village community together, making the Bay Horse a community hub. She’s a great landlady and I’m absolutely flabbergasted there’s even a thought of replacing her.

A great landlady to work with, always welcoming to all, has done so much to make the pub part of the community. Wouldn't be the same without her.

She has turned this into a great place to eat and drink and spent a lot of her own money and time to make everyone welcome

She's an amazing person and made the pub welcoming to everyone. I can't believe that they're thinking of getting rid of someone who gets along with the community so well.

The pub is a major part of the community. Not just supporting locals but the wider demographic. Veterans meet there.

I dont know Rachel personally but I know that the pub is in a good place and im always seeing advertising for fun things. My son attended the christmas event with his father and I eat here when family come visit as the food is exceptional always. Always have a warm welcome and friendly atmosphere.
