It Takes a Community to Save a Pub
You have already pledged an amazing £117,000 - thank you!
We need to raise a further £80,000 by 1 April to reach our £200,000 target before we submit again for the government grant - this could be our last chance
Please dig deep and pledge to buy shares. If you are a qualified tradesperson or can donate materials & equipment, that will count towards our total.
We know how much saving The Fox means to you all - please show your support by pledging.
Thank you
Friends of the Fox Team

How do I submit a pledge to buy shares?
Complete this online form. If you have already pledged, indicate the additional number of shares you wish to buy. More information about the share scheme is available here. Your pledge is not legally binding, it is an expression of interest.
I can’t remember how many shares I already pledged
Email rytonvillagecommunitygroup@gmail.com and our Secretary will confirm to you
I already pledged a share and wanted to wait until you got the funding before pledging more.
Please don't wait to pledge. Pledging is not legally binding but an indication of your support. We need to evidence the Community's support when we apply again for Government Funding.
I wanted to see your Business Plan before deciding whether to buy shares.
Our Business Plan is available here. Please don't wait to pledge. Pledging is not legally binding but an indication of your support. We need to evidence the Community's support when we apply again for Government Funding.
Who can buy shares?
Individuals, companies and on behalf of children under 18 - anyone can pledge to buy shares in The Fox Inn Community Pub Limited. Encourage your family and friends to pledge as well: to evidence the support of the community, the number of people/companies pledging is as important as the amount we raise.
Why should we pledge to buy shares?
Buying shares in The Fox Inn Community Pub Limited means investing in your community and helping preserve The Fox Inn for the community. We need to raise £200,000 from the Community to help fund the purchase and renovation of The Fox, and to show the Community Ownership Fund that we have the support of the community to help us secure a £250,000 grant from them. Pledges are evidence of the Community's support.
I am a qualified tradesperson, how can I pledge my time or materials?
Please complete this letter and email it to rytonvillagecommunitygroup@gmail.com . Your pledge of time / materials will count towards our total fundraising
Can I make a monetary donation instead?
Yes! Please donate to our GoFundMe page here. Share the link with your family, friends and on social media.
How can I register my interest to volunteer in the Community Cafe or Shop?
Complete this online form to register your interest.
Will I get tax relief on my investment if I buy shares?
Yes, we have received advance assurance from HMRC that investments made in our initial share offer will qualify for Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) tax relief. Those investors who are taxpayers will in due course receive a credit from HMRC of up to 50% of their investment, dependent on the rate at which they pay tax. HMRC reference: WMBC/I&R/9690624155/VCRT.
