Funding Boost for Great British Pubs
1st January 2020
The Communities Secretary backs the great British pub with a new £1.15 million fund, supporting great British pubs. The new funding will benefit an estimated 100 communities to either own their local pub or benefit from new, pub-based community services and facilities
More Than a Pub provides small grants and specialist advice for community groups at the start of their journey to community ownership. It also supports groups later in the process who require specialist professional advice with larger grants and loans to help with business planning, conveyancing, architectural help or financial advice.
Pub is The Hub will provide funding to enable a range of projects providing new, pub-based community services from post offices and shops to libraries and allotments. This will increase the services available in rural and remote communities and help sustain pubs as community assets and businesses.
