The landlord of the Queen of the South pub in Tulse Hill is trying to raise £500,000 before the end of September to complete a purchase agreement with brewery Young's. Clement Ogbonnaya intends to buy the freehold and shares while clearing existing loans. The pub, named in homage to his family, aims to remain a communal hub following the transformation from the previous venue, which had significant structural issues. Ogbonnaya expressed his determination for the pub to exist and not be converted into a commercial store.
Clement Ogbonnaya is appealing for 500,000 to complete the purchase of the Queen of the South pub in Tulse Hill to prevent its closure.
Mr. Ogbonnaya aims to raise the funds for the freehold purchase by September 30, offering a percentage of the freehold and operating profits in return.
The Queen of the South pub was named in homage to Ogbonnaya's family and serves as a communal space, fostering community engagement.
Clement Ogbonnaya stated, "It would be a massive shame for this pub to become a Lidl or something else. We’re finally finding our feet."
