A well attended meeting at the Kirkwall Youth Cafe on Thursday 1st August saw a group officially formed which will take forward plans to improve and develop the Skatepark in Kirkwall.

The group is made up of users of the Skatepark who are keen to improve the facilities in Orkney and to encourage more people to take up wheeled sports.

If you would like to find out more there is a Facebook page set up: Orkney Wheeled Sports Club

The next meeting which is open to all is on Thursday 5th of August, 7.30pm at the Kirkwall Youth Cafe.
