It's three months since the Olympics and Paralympics ended, and despite lots being made of the lasting legacy of the Games for local sports clubs a Northamptonshire gymnastic club says it might be forced to close. Billings Rhythmic Gymnastics Club in Northampton is more than Β£1,200 in debt and says unless it gets a grant or more members soon, it'll be forced to shut down. Stuart talks to the club's coach Jo Gardiner, to Helen Barber, the Northants County Chair for Rhythmic Gymnastics, to Laurence Kenyon from Kettering Premier Judo Club, and to Chris Holmes from Northamptonshire Sport.
