THE Highworth Sk8ters will take their plans for a skate park to the town council next week.

The group wants to build a skate park on the Rec, near the youth shelter.

Full details will be outlined to councillors on Tuesday, June 22, at 7pm.

Four sites have recently been assessed for suitability. Three were at the Rec and one at Crane Furlong.

One of the criteria was the potential impact on neighbours.

The site at the Rec is owned by Swindon Council, which would need to give permission for a park to be built.

Plans for a park have been in the pipeline for several years.

Youngsters have raised £8,000 for equipment, but the minimum needed is £15,000.
