Help Save the Kenley Hotel

Aim

We aim to raise £10,000. to help mobilise our "Save the Kenley Hotel" Campaign, where we reinstate the pub as a community hub.

We are a community led group that is trying to not only save Kenley Hotel, but to revive it as a community hub. The goal is to make the Kenley Hotel a hub where the community can take part in events, use the various spaces (which include 4 storeys, a back garden and front outdoor seating area), and showcase locally made products from the wider South Croydon and Surrey areas. 

Our vision is to keep the pub alive and diversify what it offers to the community, but we need your help to achieve our goal! 

What Your Support Helps Us Unlock

Our journey to launching the Kenley Community Benefit Society

As we raise £10,000, the community unlocks each of these stages:

We Get the Word Out

Leaflets, posters and banners go up across Kenley so everyone knows the campaign has begun.

We Build Our Identity

A strong, recognisable Kenley CBS brand brings the campaign to life and builds trust.

We Launch the Website

A clear, simple hub where people can learn, sign up and follow the journey.

We Bring the Community Together

Public meetings, open days and workshops start shaping the future of the Kenley Hotel.

We Reach Thousands Online

Targeted social media campaigns spread the message across Kenley and surrounding areas.

We Tell the Story

Photography and content capture the people and passion behind the campaign.

We Create the Campaign Video

A powerful, inspiring film that launches the Community Share Offer.

Why This Matters

Reaching £10,000 gives us everything we need to launch the CBS and prepare for the community share raise to save the Kenley Hotel.

Every donation unlocks the next stage. Every stage brings the hotel closer to community ownership. 

We are working with KENDRA who will be receiving all of our funds from this crowdfunder. Those funds will then be used for the creation of our own organisation.
