It would be helpful if you told us which council...

http://www.nsalg.org.uk/ are the people you need to contact ASAP.

I don't believe they *can* just close them - they have to provide
other sites of equivalent quality somewhere else.

Write to gardening magazines and Watchdog. Amateur Gardening in
particular have in this week's issue a review reminding readers of
their successful allotments campaign of a few years ago. Might be
worth dropping them a line.

good luck.
