We the undersigned petition Woking Borough Council to Give planning, support and local funding for an Indoor skatepark. More details
Given the level of facilities available to young persons at present we believe an indoor skatepark/community centre would not only benefit them but the community at large. The facility would encourage the increase in levels of participation in wheeled sports such as skateboarding, BMX, inline skating and now the latest craze scooters. Currently the numbers of children, teenagers and adults using the councils’ preferred outdoor facilities is huge. But this primarily on dry days! Where do they go when the weather is inclement? Our mission is to provide a safe and secure environment for mainly young people whilst improving or developing their existing talent using a range of partnerships. The new park could be open to other partnerships to provide extra-curricular activities to schools in the area. A studio, consultation rooms and a forum venue for community based projects.
