Hi Everyone,

We don't ask for straight up cash help lightly so we appreciate you taking the time to read.

As you may be aware we run our skateclub as a not for profit.

This means we have the tricky task of ensuring we have enough funds to run, whilst trying to keep things as affordable as possible. Over the last 3 years this has become much more difficult, with 2025 being our toughest year yet.

Along with our own costs rising, we know that many of the children and their families we work with, have also experienced their own financial difficulties. We have seen a huge increase in people wanting to access our club and what we can deliver, yet less money to be able to do it, which is both frustrtaing and upsetting.

Our standard annual outgoings amount to around £17,000 - this is not everything and does not include staff costs for our awesome coaches.

Any money donated to us goes towards these types of ongoing essential expenses.

We have always been extremely lucky with the amount of support we get, and never take it for granted. It keeps our little team together, doing what we love to do.

If you are in a position to donate we are very grateful.

THE SKATE CLUB TEAM
