Skate Park

During the Four Skate Park days in August, with equipment hired from Highline Adventures and funded by Big Lottery Fund’, Awards for All, programme. Fourteen year old skateboarder Rhys Michael, put together a questionnaire for fellow users. Results revealed that... 

  • 97 children visited the skate park, 15 girls and 82 boys.
  • Many of the children visited on more than one day, this made a total of 205 visits to the park over the 4 days
  • 69% of the children live in Usk, the rest live in nearby villages with only a small number from further afield.
  • Ages ranged from 3 years up to 23 years - over half were aged 10 years or younger.
The overwhelming view was that a skate park in Usk would give a safe place to skate whilst having a fun time with friends.
