The Bell Inn - Update
Great progress so far on the pub purchase
- A Community Benefit Society (CBS) has been set up to be the vehicle for purchasing The Bell Inn - One member one vote.
- Our Website is being created and will be launched shortly cmbcommunitypub.com. This will be where you will find all the updated information about the CBS, the project to buy the pub and all the relevant documents.
- The Business Plan has been written. This contains all the background to the project and a detailed five year plan. It is important that you read this before investing in the CBS.
- The Share offer prospectus has been prepared. This is an offer to invite individuals and organisations to become a member of the CBS by buying shares - Minimum target £160,000.
- A RICS Red Book valuation of The Bell Inn has been undertaken and paid for.
- An offer has been made to purchase the freehold and is now under negotiation.
- Next Steps are to agree the price to purchase the pub and we will continue to apply for grants. We will also launch the website and the share offer. There will be another community meeting in the Village Hall - watch out for a date.
