Skate Park Survey Online

Thursday, 20 June 2019 12:13

We're being asked to give our views on plans for a new skate park at Les Quennevais.

The site has been chosen from a short-list of 15 potential locations.

We're also being asked to suggest where we would like to see more smaller skating areas.

There is a drop-in session at the sports centre in St Brelade next Wednesday, 26 June 6-8pm.

The presentation can be seen there until 3rd July, when the consultation closes.

"The responses to the survey will be used to gauge the next steps in creating skating facilities - we are much closer to providing a more permanent home for the skate community. The creation of high-quality facilities will help develop and grow the sport and provide a social hub for young people in the island." - Senator Steve Pallett, Assistant Minister responsible for sport
