Coronavirus Update
Last updated 7pm 20/03/2010
After the latest government orders, Brighton Youth Centre has been forced to bring forward its closure date. We will be closed to the public as of Saturday 21st of March. This will include all skatepark sessions and lessons. We will be assessing the ongoing situation daily and will keep you updated here and through social media.
When will we reopen?
As of this point, we cannot say. The situation is changing constantly, and our actions will be based on what we feel is best given what is happening. On the 20th of March it was announced that all places open for social gatherings were to close immediately, and that this policy would be reviewed after a month. We will await to hear further policy before taking action.
What’s happening in the meantime?
We will still be working behind the scenes and will be working hard with the aim of being able to offer an even better service when we do reopen. We’ll also be active on social media with updates and as a source of entertainment. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to stay up to date.
We’re not going away. If you want to ask a question, or just talk to us, we’re on the emails and the private messages. We love skateboarding and talking about it, if you want to chat don’t hesitate to get in touch. In times like this it’s important to stay connected.
What will happen with my booked lessons / private hire?
We have contacted everybody by email. If you did not receive the correct information please email us at skatepark@brightonyouthcentre.org.uk
What about skating?
Sport England says “Being fit and healthy acts as a deterrent to most infections, it’s crucial that members of the public continue to lead active lives throughout this period, where it’s possible to do so.”
While government measures permit you to do so, it is encouraged to stay active, and skateboarding is a great way to do this. If you are out skating it’s vital to continue to practice social distancing measures that are in place.
