Investing

The Gardeners Rest pub has been a community-owned pub since 2016 and currently has over 420 investors who elect the management board and have a say in how the pub develops as a community enterprise, benefiting its customers and the wider community.

Your investment will give you a stake in a professionally managed pub which also creates supported training opportunities for young adults who are often excluded from the workplace, and which provides space for music and the arts.

You can buy shares for as little as £50 for 50 shares (and thereon in multiples of £50) and these can be held by individuals or a group. Each shareholder is entitled to one vote at the AGM.

If you wish to invest, please email treasurer.thegardenersrest@gmail.com with the following information:

After acceptance of your application and receipt of payment you will be emailed a share certificate and receive regular shareholders’ newsletters and updates via our email distribution list.
