It's incredibly sad but what a wonderful 9 years it has been.
For the past 6 months, every effort was made to save Rise Dunstable from closure. We were overwhelmed by the support and determination shown by our members, who stood alongside us throughout the fight.
Despite petitions from our members and support from our local MP, the Mayor of Dunstable, Central Bedfordshire councillors,
Dunstable Town councillors, BBC Three Counties Radio and local newspapers, Rise still couldn't be saved.
We would like to thank every single person who stood by us during this difficult time.
Your loyalty, encouragement, and support have meant more than words can express.
While this chapter has come to an end, we remain hopeful that Rise will return in the future.
Thank you all for being part of the Rise journey.
