Our Pubtopia Projects include

The Village Shop

What started as our community village shop is now growing into our new 24/7 community vending hub, supporting local businesses, keeping more money within our community, and reducing our carbon footprint by cutting food miles.

Dementia friendly openings

Our dementia-friendly sessions provide a welcoming, relaxed space for people living with dementia and memory loss, along with their families and carers, to connect, enjoy activities and reduce social isolation in our rural community.

Creative & wellbeing workshops

Our wellbeing and creative workshops bring people together to learn new skills, support local artists and craftspeople, reduce rural isolation and loneliness, and improve wellbeing through shared creative experiences.

Bell Tent & Pub Stays

Profits from our pub and bell tent stays are reinvested into Pubtopia CIC, helping to fund the community projects and social initiatives we deliver. Every stay with us helps make a real difference, supporting local people, reducing isolation, and creating opportunities within our rural community.

Respite breaks

Launching in 2027, our respite breaks will offer free countryside stays for families caring for a young person with a life-limiting or terminal illness. Every stay, workshop booking and purchase in our community shop helps fund these special breaks through the work of Pubtopia CIC, allowing us to give back to families who need it most.

Comedy Nights

Coming soon... Our Comedy Nights will bring people together to laugh, connect and reduce rural isolation and loneliness. Delivered in partnership with local organisations, they'll combine great entertainment with signposting to wellbeing and support services, helping people feel more connected in our rural community.

We'd love to hear from you!
