Discover how The Chequer Inn Ash Society is dedicated to maintaining and enhancing our much loved community pub, ensuring it remains a vibrant centre for all.

Founded in early 2017, The Chequer Inn Ash Society emerged to spearhead the ‘Save’ campaign, aiming to secure the future of our cherished pub. With over 300 members who became shareholders, our mission is to manage and sustain the Chequer Inn as a thriving community asset. Thanks to generous support from the Plunkett Foundation and private lenders, we successfully purchased the pub in April 2018. Our elected Committee, comprising 8 to 12 dedicated members, meets regularly to plan refurbishments and oversee operations, ensuring the pub remains a cornerstone of Ash Village life.
