YOU can't walk through many parts of Swindon, particularly near the Wyvern Theatre in the town centre, without being surrounded by skateboarders.

The skaters are often done down as a pest, but in fact many skaters are well-mannered youngsters who just want somewhere to go.

Now the Community Sk8 project is looking to prove that there is a need for an indoor park.

So many of the youth of today are criticised for being apathetic fair play to those who are trying to make a difference.
