An award-winning Leeds working men's club has denied the rumours that it is closing down. Garforth Working Men's Club (WMC), once named one of the best in Britain says custom has slowed down amid fears from customers that the venue will close for good.
The committee, made up of six members took a call from the Club and Institute Union (CIU) after they became concerned over the potential closure. However, the club's assistant secretary has denied this is the case.
Helen Butterfield told LeedsLive: "No we are not closing, there are rumours that we are shutting but we are not."
