Bovey Paradiso launches crowd-funding
By: Tony Pearce
Added: 05 October 2017
Bovey Paradiso - the project to restore the historic King of Prussia in Fore Street and develop a 100+ seat cinema theatre, artists’ facilities and a high-quality café bar / restaurant – has been granted charitable status by the Government. This means that we can now launch crowd-funding and through Gift Aid we will receive £12.50 for every £10 you donate. The benefits to our community will be:
- excellent new facilities on your doorstep, bringing new films, live relays of theatre, opera and ballet from the world’s top performers, live music and theatre performances, comedy evenings
- a great café bar / restaurant providing excellent food and drink
- an art gallery, artists’ studios, and the restoration of this 16th century heritage building
- a place for friends and neighbours to meet in a relaxed atmosphere, and to make new friends.
In exchange for donations we are offering some great benefits to say a big “THANK YOU” - free cinema tickets and other great offers – click Donate!
