LS-TEN Charity

We have set up a new charity to meet the needs of the local community with the closure of the skatepark and education setting of The Works Skate Park Charity.

We have a passionate team of volunteers currently working tirelessly to do all we can to ensure that we can get the Skate Park in Hunslet and all Education and Community programmes running before the end of January 2019.

Mission Statement: To provide a safe, engaging and inclusive environment, reduce inequality and raise aspirations using sport and education.

As a new charity we are starting with a passion and a purpose and currently relying on the goodwill of a group of amazing volunteers and donations. To create sustainability and ensure we can make the developments required to open we need to raise funds. The speed in which we are able to raise these funds will have an impact on when we are able to meet financial commitments and open the centre.

We want to target an opening at the end of January 2019 as we appreciate the longer the park is closed the more the local community will miss what has become so many peoples safe space.

If you want any more information of the ongoing developments at the charity please contact Carl Harrison on carlharrison@ls-ten.org
