My local pub has formed a CIC and is buying their leasehold!

If you happen to be a patron of the Castle Tap, do take a look.

I hope the independent, welcoming and quirky pub continues to flourish with their *superb* selection.

Becky from the collective had a great interview on BBC radio Berkshire's breakfast show this morning.
So exciting after the planning delays to be getting this project moving.
You can listen to the interview here:

Just over an hour until we're on BBC Radio Berkshire's Morning Show!

Catch us at 7.15

And we're back!
Finally we have got the thumbs up from planning to do what we need to.
It took 9 months (momentum, goodwill, and cold hard cash lost due to red tape) but now we can get started.....
Convinced a better world is possible. CMIC will do its best to make (a very small) part of that happen. Small victories and making communities is tantamount. Always stronger together.

Still amazing.
This place is the bomb! Have met so many great people who are really into what we are doing. Full report will come once I've stopped having so much fun/have time to breathe.
