They actually reversed the closure decision and I am honestly still in shock that the club stays open. It feels surreal to think about how much we packed into this and I am just so happy we get to keep our venue after all these years. Keep an eye on …
French owned, Alstom, have taken the decision to close St.Leonard's Sports & Social Club following an AGM meeting earlier tonight ( Wednesday 30/01/2013 ). This is a devastating blow to the factories employees and local community. The club has been existence for well over 30 years and has continually supported local charitable organisations and community groups. Please sign this petition to keep the club open and support one of Stafford's biggest and best family venues.
I just looked at the screen and saw we crossed one hundred names which is honestly a lot more than I thought would happen in this short amount of time. It really shows how much this place matters to people around here even though the whole situation still feels like a bad dream that we might wake up from at any second.

Just another corporate decision that screws over the local workers. Leave the club alone.
