With the need to get more people into pubs as strong as ever, useyourlocal.com, the UK’s leading website for pubs, has launched a timely initiative to drive customer footfall by encouraging friends to gather at their local to share some Puboclock time.The idea is the brainchild of useyourlocal.com founder Stuart Mills, who says: “Declaring Puboclock could not be simpler. Pub goers simply find their pub of choice at useyourlocal.com and follow the links to invite friends via Facebook and Twitter to stop what they are doing and make their way to the pub - because it’s Puboclock!“

With close to 300,000 visitors every month, useyourlocal.com can harness the power and immediacy of social media to bring people together to share and enjoy one of this country’s greatest assets - the Great British Pub. The nation’s love affair with social media is often cited as a reason for the decline in pub visits. Rather neatly, Puboclock utilises these same social media channels to turn this on its head.”
