RUSTHALL COMMUNITY CINEMA

RCN 1171282, Tunbridge Wells

We all suggest the films we would like to see then vote to select those that get screened. A short film (perhaps of educational or cultural significance) is screened before the main feature, then we hold a discussion group for all to exchange views and learn about the film. All seats reserved in advance are free, we run entirely on donations.

Our Project

Rusthall Community Cinema, which has been screening films in the community since 2016, aims to purchase new equipment as the current models either fail or become obsolete by the introduction of new technology. 

Your generosity will help us to do this.  

Who are we ? 

We are a charity funded entirely by donations delivering cinema in the village of Rusthall, near Tunbridge Wells in Kent. We are volunteer-run with a rota of about 30 active supporters - more needed.  

As well as promoting the enjoyment of films, we aim to relieve loneliness, particularly among the elderly members of the community. We are accessible to those with disabilities. Our entrance by donation policy means that all are welcome to come, whatever their financial situation. 

As well as our regular fortnightly screening of main feature films, voted for by our community, we show diverse short films from different countries and cultures. 

We run workshops, swap books, invite speakers, host post-film discussions, hold competitions and raffles and share cakes – all linked to the theme of the current film. 

Our warm and inclusive atmosphere helps to bring everyone together and many friendships have been forged, often across the generations.
