Community Pubs Inquiry

The Community Pubs Inquiry is an official review conducted to examine the role and challenges of local pubs, especially those owned or run by communities. It explores issues like how these pubs support local social life, their financial sustainability, and any government policies affecting them. The goal is to identify ways to help community pubs thrive, preserve their cultural importance, and ensure they continue to serve as valued local gathering spaces. The inquiry gathers evidence from stakeholders to inform potential policy changes or initiatives that promote community ownership and resilience of these pubs.
