It is nearly twelve months since the company I work for announced that they would be closing the doors and moving production to our sister company in Haslingden. (the north)
Now that it is getting closer to the closing date, which is the 7th of July this year, things are getting a little more serious with the people that still have their jobs. The company is being emptied out, and the machinery moved day by day to the other factory.
It has been a tough time lately in the midlands with the closure of other manufacturing plants and businesses, and the pressure is definitely heavy upon the shoulders of my fellow workers to find jobs and survive. Over the next two weeks I will record and introduce you to the remaining workers, and fill you in on the final stages of the company closure...
