When Should You Remove a Slack Group?
There are times why you might want to get rid of a channel in Slack. You might, for instance, abandon a once-favorite broadcasting medium. On the other hand, you could decide to merge several channels into one. Whatever the reason, getting rid of a channel on Slack is a breeze.
The question is whether or not all users of Slack have the ability to permanently remove a channel.
At the moment, only workspace owners and admins can delete channels, but everyone (except guests) can archive them. You should contact your workspace’s admin if you want to remove a channel from Slack.

A Slack channel can be archived, and the archived channel’s content can be accessed and searched in the same way as it was before the channel was archived.

Step 2: Choose the channel’s name from the Conversation Header.
Step 3: Choose Channel Settings > Archive channel for all users from the main menu.
Step 4: When ready to confirm, choose the Archive channel.
