A PLEA! 
I'm fortunate to have spent the last 21 years - more than half my life - working in golf.
It started with 20p rounds on a public putting green in Orkney in the early '90s, and continued on public courses in and around Glasgow when my family relocated in 1996.
That Orkney putting green is now a bowling green, and several of those Glasgow courses are gone, rotting in plain sight after being abandoned by the local authority.
Without those facilities, I highly doubt I'd be doing what I do now.
The idea that other kids could be deprived the opportunities I've had, purely due to a lack of access or availability, is a huge part of why I'm so passionate about the public golf sector.
So please, sign this petition to try to keep Dalmuir Golf Course open. It may or may not work, but it has to be worth a try.
