The council finally confirmed the site for the new indoor park. I am completely drained after all this effort but incredibly thankful that so many of you stuck with me until we got this result. Keep an eye on the local development announcements to ensure they actually break ground as …

Me and im sure many other people in the Bournemouth, Boole, Christchurch and more areas would like to have an indoor skatepark for bmx, skateboarding and blading. This is mainly due to the bad weather on the south coast. Many other big town names have indoor parks e.g. Bristol, Liverpool, London, Birmingham, Leeds, Bridport and many more. So please could we have an indoor skatepark and this is a petition for it to show the amount of people wanting an indoor park that will use it.

The rain keeps falling and the local spots remain soaked while we wait for progress. We are nearing a hundred signatures so please send this link to anyone else who needs a dry place to ride.

My son has nowhere to go in the winter. He just sits on his phone. Give these kids a place to actually get out and move.

Living in Bournemouth is a nightmare for skating 9 months of the year because of the rain. Somewhere dry is long overdue.

Been waiting for this for years. Poole and Bournemouth are big enough to support one. Why are we always trailing behind other cities.

YES. Getting tired of skating car parks and getting kicked off by security. We need a proper spot.

Please make this happen! Skating is the only thing the teenagers around here have to do. The concrete parks are useless when they are wet.
