Community pub ownership bulletin - December

Since August’s bulletin, the number of community-owned pubs (COPs) has increased slightly from 223 to 227. Those not owned but run by the community are up one at 29. This slowdown is no doubt connected to the demise of the Community Ownership Fund. However, the number of active campaigns has gone up from 78 to 90 so enthusiasm for community ownership clearly remains plentiful. CAMRA supports the community-ownership model and is keen to help those interested in going down this route. The community pubs webpage of CAMRA’s website contains advice and guidance as well as regularly updated information about existing and planned projects.
