January 2026 – Scottish Community Pubs Network Call

An informal Zoom call for rural Scottish pub groups. Whether you're starting the journey to community ownership or you're trading. Join us!

Date and time: to

Location: Online

Organisation: Plunkett UK

Join Plunkett UK at our next online networking event for Scottish community pub groups. This early evening free get-together is open to all community groups involved in a community-owned pub/hotel project in rural Scotland, whether you are at the ideas stage or are already open and trading.

Plunkett UK will have one of our experienced pubs specialist advisers on the call, to help answer questions and take part in the conversation, so feel free to raise any topic and we’ll see what we can all do to help.

As is customary on these calls, we will begin with a short talk from one of the Plunkett team. At Plunkett UK, we want to shape a future where community-owned hospitality businesses not only survive but thrive – as inclusive, sustainable spaces at the heart of their communities.

We recently formed a taskforce to explore meaningful and innovative solutions to the significant challenges currently facing community-owned hospitality businesses. At a recent roundtable event which was hosted in partnership with Diageo, we were asking delegates to provide their insights and contribute to discussions. During the webinar, we will be sharing some of the day’s outcomes.

As winter continues, this is a chance to catch up with your peers and hear about Plunkett’s support opportunities.

This informal and friendly event is kindly sponsored by the Scottish Government.
