Twyford Skatepark Project
Help us build a brilliant new skatepark facility for wheeled sports in Twyford!
The current skatepark in Twyford was built almost 2 decades ago and is in need of increasing expenditure for repairs and renovation. The existing facility is unsightly, unfit for purpose and does not cater for the diverse needs of the community.
The skatepark is an important facility in Twyford village that encourages sport, fitness, competition, creativity and an outlet for an energetic youth without any expensive user charges. The Council is keen to provide facilities like this, that can be used by all, whatever their means.
Given the existing design, the ramps are currently being used more to climb on than the intended purpose which is dangerous and attracts antisocial behaviour. A modern, inclusive and experienced approach is now being sought to benefit the wider community and provide a facility everyone can enjoy.
Twyford Skatepark Project Crowdfunder Campaign
The people behind the project
We are a group of enthusiastic parents, skaters, BMX enthusiasts and scooter riders who have come together with Twyford Parish Council to launch this skatepark project. With the invaluable support of the Council we are looking to raise over £200,000 to fund the construction of a modern concrete skatepark that will cater to the diverse needs of our community. The new facility will include essential amenities such as clear safety signage, spectator benches, accessible ramps, beginner jumps and a tool kit repair station. We want this to be a space for everyone to enjoy!
Thanks to Twyford Parish Council we are well on our way…but we need your help to unlock extra funding.

The project budget is £200,000 with costs of benches and a tool station on top. We are applying for grants and have the support of the Parish Council. Funds will contribute towards the skatepark and all the extras.
