Open Letter to Dundee City Councillors
Boomerang Community Centre receives Dundee City Council funding to help improve access to affordable food, deliver activities and support for children, young people and families, and engage the local community in activities that promote education, health and reduced social isolation.
Alongside other community centres named within the 2026/27 budget consultation as being at risk of funding reductions, we have submitted the joint letter below to Dundee City Council. The letter outlines the role our centres play within Dundee’s communities, the potential impact of further cuts on marginalised and diverse groups, and the importance of continued investment in preventative, community-based services.
We appreciate the time and effort taken by everyone who has already submitted a response to the consultation, and we would encourage anyone who has not yet done so to share their views before Friday via the Council’s consultation portal here
We are concerned about the outcome of this process — not because we doubt that our services are valued, but because we are concerned that repeated, complex and time-pressured consultations can be inaccessible for many people. This risks reducing participation and may result in a less representative response than in previous years.
