Building a skatepark for Turlin Moor

After lots of consultation with local residents and listening to young people we have started our much-wanted project to construct a spray concrete open access skatepark on Turlin Moor on the site of the former community centre.
With nearly 3,000 under 16’s in the area we want to:
· Give local young people a voice on a local facility that is for their use,
· Encourage healthy and free outdoor play activities,
· Create a space that will encourage participants to learn patience and respect, as well as concern for their own and others safety
· Create an inter-generational space where all ages are welcome.

BCP Council have agreed we can use the site, and we have started our fund raising. We very much hope to start construction in 2025!

If you would like to get involved, please contact Mel Lucas on 0759 8780361.

OUR PROJECTS

THE PLAY PARK

Everyone is so proud about the Play Park. The original play park had become dilapidated and in response local residents organised the Play Moor, Skate Moor community group to tackle this. Working with Ann to consult with the community, they then worked with council colleagues (our colleagues from Environmental Services were great partners) to raise the £120,000 to make this happen. The Play Park was opened on 4 July 2019 and as you can see from the second photo it was an immediate success. Play is fundamentally important to the development of all children.

FOOTBALL FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

Every Thursday evening, we run a football session with AFC Bournemouth for the young people of Turlin Moor, some of whom are pictured below during their visits to AFC Bournemouth’s stadium in 2017 and 2019 respectively, as part of our programme of summer activities.
