Support Us

Whilst we were delighted to be able to safely reopen our doors in July, this remains a very challenging time for cinemas across the country.

We fully appreciate not everyone is ready to return yet, and film choice is limited for those of you who have been visiting, and we've had a lot of people asking how they can support us in other ways.

The Kinema has always prided itself on being independently operated, relying solely on ticket sales for our income. However with the ongoing effects of the pandemic, not only on capacity, but on the film release schedule, we find ourselves in need of support until the big films start to be released again.

We have applied for a sizeable grant from the DCMS which, if successful, would see us through a difficult winter. However the outcome of this is not assured and could take up to 10 weeks before we hear anything.

Cinemas nationwide are closing, but we will continue to open, albeit it with limited hours depending on available films.

How can you help?

Our Kinema Gift Vouchers are valid for 5 years and give us a much needed short-term cash injection whilst allowing you to have something to look forward to in the future.

Books and DVDs about the history of The Kinema are also on sale and make an ideal gift.
