SCOTLAND’S newest skatepark has officially opened after nearly two years of fundraising by a local community.
Supporters of the North Berwick Community Skatepark raised £160,000 to replace the town’s aging outdoor park with a brand new facility.
Project committee chair, Lewis Houghton, said the final facility aims to foster progression in the sport among skaters of all ages.He said: “It’s been over eighteen months of all consuming activity from our very small committee, we’ve consulted widely, raised the funds, organised events and coordinated the build.
“This project has been a labour of love, the culmination of countless hours of planning, dedication, and hard work.
