Reopen or beloved Greyhound
We urge you to reconsider your decision and reopen this cherished establishment. We understand that running such an establishment is no small task but believe that with your leadership and our support as loyal patrons, we can bring back this treasured piece of Newport's social fabric.
Why is this important?
The closure of the Greyhound Pub in Newport, UK has left a void in our community. This place was more than just a pub; it was a gathering spot, a place where memories were made and friendships were forged. Despite its reputation as being 'rough', many of us loved it for its authenticity and charm.
The Greyhound meant so much to so many people. It was an integral part of our local culture and history. Its closure has not only deprived us of a beloved hangout spot but also impacted local businesses that relied on the footfall generated by the pub's patrons.
According to data from CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale), pubs contribute significantly to local economies, with each pub generating an average of £80,000 per year in community benefits (CAMRA, 2018). By reopening the Greyhound Pub, we can restore these benefits to our community.
To make more memories in a special place.
Please sign this petition if you too want Jack to reopen the Greyhound Pub!
