Skate Parks: Guide to Getting Started

This Guide has been produced by Stroud District Council and provides a useful resource on developing a skate park, right from the idea through to full management and sustainability of the project.

They provide young people with somewhere to hang out and have the opportunity to access physical activity.

The Guide recognises that Skate Parks are here and will be here to stay .... even in Powys.  Knighton has already been successful.  A group in Llandrindod Wells are coming together to pull their plan together.  Where next?
