No contracts (tenders) have been sent out yet for the Clifton project according to the City Council. They're in the process of finalising the document so should be going to prospective companies in the next couple. We'll then have to wait for 4 more weeks for the companies to complete the document and then an evaluation of the tenders needs to be carried out. From that 1 company will be chosen to design and build the park in Clifton.
When i know more about timescales and deadlines i'll let ya know but let it be known that they are going to build something it's just later than expected.
Southglade will be ready in 2 weeks...!!!
Go away rain...

JOIN US or die...
This is a call to everyone in Notts who is serious about making things happen.
The City Council have told me that they have not included the skatepark in the bid to the Heritage Lottery, so cheers, stoked on that one. They also said that if we wanted to see anything provided for skating / riding then we would have to find the money ourselves...!!! That's fine but when you're talking about £300k - 500k then that's a different matter.
So, please get in touch if you want to join the committee and fight for what you believe in. This is an opportunity to leave a legacy for years in Notts.
We're not asking for a lot of time, just a commitment from you to help with anything from speaking to/emailing people, gathering info to help with funding bids, raising awareness of the cause or doing some fundraising e.g. putting on a gig, video premiere, car washing, whatever to make some money. All proceeds go to the park...!
PLEASE get in touch if you're interested in doing anything...! wewantaskatepark@gmail.com or pop into Non Stop, St. James's St, Notts and leave your details.
Cheers.
Southglade - Build week 3 or 4 (can't remember)
No concrete on site yet which is a shame but there are some lovely breezeblocks to get you excited...! It's kinda taking shape, i suppose small steps but well keen to go skate it...! It's like waiting for Xmas when you're a kid.
