A tenacious 12-year-old local from Grantham has effectively championed for a fresh skatepark, which has resulted in the commitment of £125,000 from the South Kesteven District Council for its construction at Wyndham Park. The facility, which is anticipated to be finalised by the end of January, will serve fans of varied activities including skateboarding, roller skating, BMX, and scooting across all age demographic. The campaign progressed rapidly post Zak, the young champion, made a connection with Councillor Tim Harrison via social media, discussing the present dearth of leisure activities within the town and suggesting that a skatepark could be an ideal fix.
