Update on The Bell
We would like to provide an update on the project to restore and reopen The Bell.
John Rogers of The Globe has decided that he will not be proceed...
With just a few days to go until our community share offer closes on Thursday 12 February, we would like to thank everyone who has supported the project so far. The response from the village and wider community has been remarkable and reflects the strength of feeling about bringing the Bell back into use as a pub.
Many people who made indicative pledges earlier in the campaign have now followed this through with formal share applications, for which we are very grateful. If you were one of those who expressed an interest but have not yet had the chance to apply, this is a gentle reminder that there is still time to do so before the offer closes.
Our aim is still to raise a minimum of £225,000 towards the purchase of The Bell. The more we raise through the share offer, the greater the community’s stake and the stronger the society’s position as we move towards the next stage.
Applications for shares, or donations, can be made via our website: https://bellatiden.com/
Paper application and donation forms can also be completed using the leaflets delivered around the village, with additional copies available from Iden Village Stores on Church Lane.
