The Donheads have no pub following closure and no village shop of their own. If The Forester were managed sensibly it would be a great success

From a community perspective, a pub would be so much more beneficial than another private dwelling.

As a family who recently moved to Donhead St Andrew we are very upset our only pub has gone. We had used it numerous times beforehand. It would be a great shame to loose this community gathering place for good, especially with so much interest and support to get it up and running again.

I liked this pub & would not want to loose it. It needs keeping for the community and once it is turned into a house, the community has lost it forever. My son in law worked there as a youngster and it have me a good start in working.

The Forester, and village pubs in general, are the heart of small communities. Once lost, this wonderful tradition is lost forever, with village life and character much the poorer for it

I am signing because the Forester used to be a central part of my family’s life in Gutch Common. We really miss it. Before it closed there was nothing we liked better than to take the footpaths that lead from Gutch Common to Donhead St Andrew and to go to the Forester to have a pint and a fabulous lunch.

We need to save our local pubs, they are much more than just a pub, they are a community asset and with a community such as one that has raised enough funds to purchase it, it just goes to show how much it’s needed.
