Shame on this closure
THE PRESS of December 30 reports that New Earswick and District Disabled Social Club is to shut.
It is shocking and disgraceful that City of York Council should remove £5,500 of funding for a club that gives people with disabilities an opportunity to get out. Surely out to the £1.4 million-plus made from Lendal Bridge fines in York the money could have been found to keep the club open?
