Planning Applications Now Live

Thank you for attending!

May 6, 2024

This past May 1st, we had a wonderful turnout at Iden Village Hall where we gathered to share and discuss the future of The Bell. If you weren’t able to attend you can find all the details by viewing the presentation available here.

The event was an opportunity to present where we are now with the Save The Bell initiative. As a registered Community Benefit Society, we’re currently in negotiations to purchase the freehold, and we’re also tackling the financial aspects necessary.

We Need Your Support

Two critical steps right now are our crowdfunding appeal and the community share offer. Both are vital for our application to the Community Ownership Fund, where we are seeking a £250,000 grant to help towards the purchase.

You can donate to our Crowdfunding here or pledge your support to our Community Share Offer here. We need to gather all the pledges by May 17th to submit our application on time.

Questions?

We understand you might have questions or need more information before you decide to contribute. Please feel free to contact us for any queries.
