Children are being offered the chance to attend free skateboarding and scooter sessions this Easter, courtesy of ATBShop Skate Warehouse.

Families looking for something fun and active for their children to do over the Easter holidays, are invited to attend free skateboarding and scooter sessions over the next two weeks. 

The event is run through ATBShop Skate Warehouse, in partnership with the Department of Education, Tech Deck and Swindon Borough Council. 

Each session will include fun games, the chance to win prizes, and healthy snacks for children to enjoy. No booking is required. 

The events are funded by the Holiday Activities and Food programme run by Swindon Borough Council, but any child (aged 5 - 16 years recommended) from across Swindon is welcome to join.

If your child has a scooter or a skateboard, they are encouraged to bring it along to the sessions, but if not there will be some available to borrow on the day.

The below sessions will be held from 10am - 1pm at:

  • Morrison’s Skate Park, Haydon Wick – 13 and 20 April
  • The Fields Skate Park, Covingham – 14 and 21 April
  • Walcot Skate Park, Buckhurst – 15 and 22 April

A session will also be held from 2pm - 5pm at Rivermead Skatepark, on 14 and 21 April.
