Save The Dip - Help us reopen The Railway Bell pub Hampton

The Railway Bell, a treasured local asset, had to close last year following the death of the landlord. The Save The Dip group has been formed to try and reopen it, and we want to form a Community Benefit Society to try and purchase the pub from Stonegate plc, who hold the freehold.

The purpose of this appeal is to raise money for our administrative costs, including a full survey of the business potential (cost about £2,000), and various registration fees.

Donors should be aware that, while we will of course make best endeavours to buy the pub, success cannot be guaranteed.
