The Yeaveley Arms, reopened in November 2017, has quickly become renowned for its exceptional food and drink offerings. Beyond its culinary delights, the pub hosts a variety of events such as Classic Vehicle Meets, Bike Meets, Live Music, Themed Evenings, Quiz Nights, and Evening Talks, making it an integral part of the community. The pub also caters to private functions including anniversaries, birthdays, weddings, and baby showers.

The Yeaveley Arms is deeply committed to fundraising and community support. Their weekly pub quiz charges a £2 entry fee, with all proceeds donated to The Woodlands Centre (local McMillan cancer treatment centre) and The Huntingdon MS Therapy Centre, raising over £5,000 to date. Additionally, the pub has hosted race nights, raising £800 to help a villager travel to Africa to build schools.

The pub sponsors the village under-7s football team and another local village’s cricket team. They also collect and store soft toys for SERV (AKA Bloodrunners), who use them to fundraise for their blood delivery service.

The Yeaveley Arms allocates spaces in its car park for local events, such as the village yard sale for residents without yards, the Pathfinder March checkpoint, Feast Week band performances, and the volunteer tent. Local groups and charities frequently use the pub for raffle draws and ticket sales.

The publican actively participates in the village events committee, assisting with planning various community activities. The pub has established sports groups like TROGS (The Royal Oak Golf Society) and two darts teams, predominantly attended by men. These groups have fostered new friendships and created a fun social circle, with many positive comments from wives and girlfriends about the impact on their partners’ social lives.

The local community has shown immense support and appreciation for the Yeaveley Arms’ efforts. The pub’s initiatives have strengthened community bonds and provided essential support for local charities and groups. The establishment of sports groups has been particularly impactful, offering a welcoming space for men to socialise and form new friendships.

The Yeaveley Arms’ initiatives have significantly impacted the local community. Their fundraising efforts have supported vital services and projects, while the creation of sports groups and community events has fostered a strong sense of belonging and camaraderie among residents. The pub’s commitment to supporting local causes and creating inclusive social opportunities has made it a cornerstone of the community.
