On Tuesday, i attended a meeting, to try set up a constituted group, that can then apply for external funding for a skatepark in Illingworth. I had arranged for council officers to attend and they in turn had invited members of the Hebden Bridge skatepark to attend and share their experience with the Illingworth youths. The meeting went really well, with enough adults coming forward to sign up, and become part of the skatepark groups committee. The council officers went away to look at possible sites and put a constitution together, which will be signed in 2 weeks time. I am really proud to have been part of this since the beginning, and now realise, that the hard work is just starting, thanks to everyone who turned up.
