The Blue Bell - Stoke Ferry

We have established a Community Benefit Society as a transparent way to deliver the project with the community. 

A community benefit society is run primarily for the benefit of the community at large, rather than just for members of the society. This means that it must have an overarching community purpose that reaches beyond its membership.

The money raised by our share offer, combined with other funding, will enable the Society to safeguard the Blue Bell. The Society will ensure the pub makes enough profit to be sustainable, but the overarching goal is to provide great services and play a vital role within our community.

Consider volunteering

• The Blue Bell has been saved by an incredible team of volunteers renovating the building and grounds​

• Now we need people who can do shifts in the cafe and pub in the kitchen, behind the bar, serving and cleaning up. They will be working alongside our talented manager, chef and cafe manager. It's great fun and you get to chat to so many people. 

• We won't need volunteers forever. Overtime we should be able to create even more paid roles. But while we get this exciting new community project off the ground we need some help for a little while longer.
