Save Gatley Golf Course

The Issue

Would you join a revitalised amateur golf club in Gatley?

Gatley Golf Course, a precious and much-loved green space and sporting facility, was established more than 100 years ago for the benefit of Gatley and Heald Green residents, as well as the wider local community.

Now, it is threatened with being lost for ever.  On 8 February 2024, Stockport councillors will vote on whether to allow 278 houses to be built on the site.

The Highways and Planning Committee have asked for more information about whether the club could continue as a viable sporting and community facility before making a decision.

In the short time available, this petition aims to canvass the local community about likely membership support for a club in the future. 

Sign the petition if you would be interested in joining Gatley Golf Club.

Would you join as a golfing or social member, assuming the fees were acceptable? What kind of a club you would like to see?  Let us know in the "Reasons for Signing".

This petition is organised by Gatley Golf Course Action Group.  Please note we are not looking for donations. You are free to skip any requests on change.org.

Thank you for your support!
