This town needs one. Been talked about for over 40 years and it's about time someone started listening!

It would be great to have a skate-park. The more different facilities we have, the more likely it that our children will find an activity they enjoy.

I’m signing this petition because i would like to show my support for a Skatepark for Saltburn. I believe that it would be a great advantage for the children and young people of Saltburn.

I am an adult skater myself and would absolutely appreciate a skatepark for the area, as there is nothing otherwise, and no places really for young people in Saltburn to meet up.

I support this project, this is an investment in the future of our young people.

When a child/teenager doesn't have a hobby/sport to concentrate on, it is much more likely for them to be involved in crime, vandalism and substance abuse. A skate park will not only benefit teenagers but all the residents of saltburn. A decent sized skatepark made from concrete with a variety of ramps and a bowl will keep people occupied for years to come. This is especially important with the closure of rkade skatepark in Redcar. People are building ramps on council owned land and it is costing the council money to remove them. This proves how much people want a skate park, they are trying to build one themselves with their own money and time!

Saltburn has always needed a skatepark.

We should be encouraging excercise and providing space for young adults and children to improve their skills , socialise and gain confidence .

When my children were young they would have loved a skatepark. The chance arose when the town supermarket went up for sale. The area now a recycling area could have been bought to develop a real asset for the town. This opportunity was missed and my childre, now adults, grew up without a skatepark. I don't want to see others miss out.k

this has been a wanted thing in saltburn for the last 20 years and I think its about time the council made it happen! Loads of youth would benefit from this!!

I have a skate mad teenager. And 3 other children that would love to have more opportunities to be outside.

I think it's a good idea. The more free activities available to kids means the less time they are spending on tech. This leading to a healthier mental wellbeing.

Janice Downs (Saltburn, 2020-08-23)

I am signing because Saltburn is a surfing skater town, full of people that care about the community and the growth of its people in it. Skaters of all ages will use a skate park in Saltburn. It's well overdue.

I’m very passionate about skateboarding and the skateboarding community. I’d live to try it myself and this would provide me with the perfect place to try it and meet people that can help and share the same passion.

I used to ride BMX, i remember how i used to complain having to get on the train and get to boro (Prissick Park) or R-Kade Skatepark in redcar. Me and my friends used to try and ask if there was any chance in having it published in the "Talk Of The Town" paper but not much happened of it. I think it's a class idea, If one could ever get arranged, I know for a fact, i'd be down there learning again

My partner is a grown up ex skateboarder and he used to love it. My two boys are both in to it too but have nowhere to go to practice.

We need a skatepark for our kids. No facilities for our young generation.

Louise Pearson (Saltburn, 2020-08-24)

This asset would add value for both residents and visitors to Saltburn

Claire Leonard (Saltburn by the Sea, 2020-08-24)

I believe it would be better for skaters to have a place to practice their skills rather than doing it in a public area where the general public may get in the way or worse get injured

my son will get some use of it when he gets older .

There’s nothing going on for young people in this whole region! This skate park would be an amazingly positive place and an asset to the area!

When I was younger I was passionate about bmx riding and skateboarding but I never really had the opportunity to take my skill to the next level. Im older now and have my own kid and I think a skatepark in saltburn would be a great way to keep the younger generation out of trouble and give them something to do.

Luke Green (Saltburn-by-the-Sea, 2020-08-24)

I think it’s a very positive activity for young people.

Be really good for the youngsters of Saltburn, outdoors, keeping them fit and making friends.

The skateboarding community is always growing in the northeast, and we should be encouraging people of all ages to get outdoors

The young people of Saltburn need unorganised activities of their own.

Cllr Craig Hannaway (Saltburn, 2020-08-24)

There's nothing else and nowhere for the youth of Saltburn to go. Hopefully it will also keep kids with skateboards off the roads

Chris Bird (Saltburn, 2020-08-24)

I think Saltburn is a fantastic place for a skatepark.

Michael Clarke (Bishop Auckland, 2020-08-24)

I grew up in Saltburn and know for a fact there is nothing for teenage kids to do in the town. They get moaned at if the are in the play park and moaned at if in the town. The younger generation need somewhere to go and something to do and to promote healthy living, rather than being stuck in doors playing video games. Plus my son would love a skate park. Bigger towns get all sorts while we miss out.

Michelle Johnson (Redcar, 2020-08-24)

I’m signing this petition because, as a teenager myself I think it would be really lovely to have a skate park as,there isn’t much for kids to do around Saltburn and I think a skate park would be lovely to make kids bond more,and it would be fun

My son is an eager skateboarder and bmx rider. With the closure of the R-Kade in Redcar, we need a skatepark that is close to us! (The nearest is at Darlington and Scarborough!!)

Skate park is n
needed, particularly to give youngsters
Something to occupy them. Skate park also promotes healthy out door activity.

Saltburn should have a skate park. I used to skate when I was younger in saltburn and it would have been great back then, but would be great to see one now.

As a born and bred Saltburn resident and parent to 3 saltburn children I know how important it is to have outside space and exercise. This town is crying out for a skate park for our youngsters!! Good luck!!!

I am a local skateboarder who myself has campaigned for a skatepark in Saltburn as far back as the 90’s I now have to children and would like a skatepark for them to use and to encourage young people to pursue physically active hobbies and stay out of trouble

Saltburn has been deprived of a skatepark for too long. Their skateboarding scene is very open and definitely deserves a better infrastructure for it to grow.

Toby Nichol (Leeds, 2020-08-25)

#168

I think it would be beneficial to young people for exercise and somewhere to hang out. It would cater to all ages too and would be an asset to Saltburn-by-the-Sea

Mark Hopkins (Stockton on Tees, 2020-08-25)

I am singing as the nearest decent skate park is at Preston park. Children and teenagers deserve someone they can skate safely and not get into trouble. They have the right to a safe environment .

I have a Grandson who loves scootering and the skateboard. He has taken part in competitions and a new skatepark would be another challenge for him

I'm signing because my son loves riding his skateboard. If they all go together after school that is very good after school activity and socializing.
