Johnston Press's Yorkshire Weekly Newspaper Group is selling off its building in Batley, which will force the Batley News staff to be relocated to Dewsbury leaving the newspaper with no permanent presence in the town or within its own circulation area.
This will have a negative impact on the existing town centre and damage the relationship between newspaper and its readership.
We the undersigned call on Yorkshire Weekly Newspaper Group to reconsider the closure of its Batley office, the home of the Batley News, and maintain a permanent presence in the town for the good of the town, the local economy, the newspaper itself and the loyal and proud people of Batley.
You can further help this campaign by sponsoring it
