Peel's Manx Legion Club to close

The Peel branch of the Manx Legion has announced it will close its doors for good in March.

In a statement posted to their facebook page they said following legal advice they will be closing the doors at midnight on Sunday 17th March.

The statement also revealed a notice will be published in the paper in due course, and notification will be given to their creditors.

They described it as a difficult decision for the committee, and have acted in the best interest of valued and dedicated staff.
