    Bilton Club.

    Bilton Working Men's Club is to change its name after more than 100 years.

    The organisation's April newsletter says it will choose something that 'more accurately reflects the inclusivity and diversity of the club'.

    The newsletter asks for suggestions on what the new name should be.

    A subsequent post on the club's Facebook page says the following names have been suggested: The Bilton, The Club @Bilton, Club 1914 @ Bilton and Bilton Sports & Social.

    The club, on Skipton Road, was founded in 1913.

    According to the newsletter, it currently has 600 members and is 'in a healthy financial position and continues to trade profitably'.

    However, there are concerns about the impact of rising energy bills and staff costs.

    Membership costs £10 a year and the benefits include drinks at around 50p a pint cheaper. Non-members are welcome.
