Save The Ranch

Save The Ranch

It has been brought to my attention that proposals to secure ‘the Ranch’ for use by community football clubs are at risk.

In recent by-elections, despite the Conservatives gaining seats, Labour gained control of Workington Town Council.

One of their very first actions is to try and scupper the acquisition of the Ranch for community use.

On Monday 23rd May, the town council will consider a proposal to continue the purchase, alongside a Labour proposal designed to scupper the purchase.

The Ranch has been a part of Workington's sports scene for decades, being the home of British Steel's sports teams. The style of the changing facilities led to it being nicknamed 'the Ranch' - a name that has stuck. The social club alongside was incredibly popular, and I remember going to parties there. Latterly it has been the home of Workington Reds Junior Football Club,, whose hard work has created a fantastic junior football facility - and I've spent many hours pitch-side at my own children's away games!

SIGN MY PETITION

Tell Workington Town Council to #SaveTheRanch

We, the undersigned, call on Workington Town Council to do everything in their power to acquire the community football facilities at the Ranch; to protect and enhance them for the hundreds of children currently using them and the many thousands that will use them in the future; and to set out a programme of future investment in grassroots sports facilities for our young people.
