SAVE THE CARPS!!!

Further to a recent village petition which has collected in excess of 750 signatures an action 

group committee has been formed to try  and preserve The Carpenters Arms as a 

community village public house.

After years of under investment and a series of short term landlords Charles
Wells Pub Company has decided that the pub no longer fits their businessmodel, and have decided to close/sell The Carpenters Arms.

As a group we are looking into the option of purchasing the property & land
as a locally owned property company which would allow the pub to continue
trading as a tenanted freehold business.

A viability study is underway and a team of professional advisers are being
assembled to set up the private property company and produce a business
plan.

We are seeking indications from individuals, groups & businesses who would
consider buying shares in the property & land which would attract annual
dividend payments.

If you would like further details or to offer your assistance, services or support
in anyway please contact:

Charles Wells' community policy states: Our home town community in Bedford is important to us, and we want to protect it for future generations.  Similarly, the communities around each and every one of our pubs is precious to them and they play a crucial role in the fabric of that society. It's therefore important for us to show responsibilty for those around us.
