The policy mentions "the need for formal and informal public social spaces, playgrounds and skateparks". Consultation (with the community a project is aimed at) is essential towards creating meaningful and effective development. Consulting with (Cam-Skate.co.uk) on skateboarding related development would create a symbiotic relationship; yield better results and more use from the project. The skate-area at donkey common is a perfect example of a skatepark which is not fit for purpose and is therefore not used as such. We want to help concentrate efforts and resources at meaningful and well-built projects to minimise the contrary.
