MEMBERS of Ramsbottom Young People’s Project are encouraging skaters to get in touch with ideas on how the town’s park could be improved.

A spokesman for the group said: “We recently met with Bury Council to discuss Ramsbottom Skate Park and whether we could support it being repaired and reopened. We’ve had encouragement and an idea of what is needed, and now we really want the views of young people to support us in our funding applications.

“If you’re a skater boy or girl, drop us a line on our Twitter account, @RamsbottomYPP, your views matter.”
