The Issue

For nearly a century, Dalmuir Golf Course has been an integral part of our community. As long-standing residents and frequent visitors, we have found solace, companionship, and an affordable golfing experience on its well-maintained greens, which rank among the finest in the UK's municipal golf courses.

Our beloved golf course serves not just as a venue for enjoying a round or two of golf, but as a therapeutic space that aids in improving physical and mental wellbeing. Nevertheless, our cherished source of deep community ties and wellbeing is under threat due to the proposed closure by the West Dunbartonshire Council.

This alarming proposition fails to consider the blow it inflicts on our community and the loyal members who consider its existence pivotal to their daily lives. Not to mention, the closure undermines the municipal golfing culture in the UK and sets a precedent for other public facilities to face similar fates.

We seek to protect and preserve Dalmuir Golf Course. By doing so, we hold onto a piece of our community's heritage, facilitate affordable access to sports and fitness, and support a resource that contributes significantly to mental and physical wellbeing. We implore the West Dunbartonshire Council to review their decision and safeguard this longstanding community asset for present and future generations. Show your support for Dalmuir Golf Course by signing this petition.
