Community shares
Community shares were made available via Ethex, a not-for-profit organisation which hosts investment opportunities from community organisations.
- Community shares cost £1 each, with a minimum buy-in of 50 shares (£50) to become a shareholder.
- We are pleased to offer a discounted minimum buy-in of 30 shares (£30) if you’re aged 16-29 or have an OX1, OX3, and OX4 postcode.
- Shareholders will become co-owners of the Ultimate Picture Palace Community Cinema and will be able to vote at shareholder meetings.
We designed our share offer so that as many people as possible can invest by offering a low buy-in structure alongside discounted rates.
