The Keep Rolling Project empowers young people through a unique blend of skateboarding and education, providing opportunities for personal growth, skill development, and community engagement—particularly for youth from diverse and often marginalised backgrounds.

Skateboarding sessions are led by Rachael, a SkateboardGB coach and Youth Worker, alongside Aurore, a Level 4 PT and mental health ambassador for Nike SB and Women Win’s ‘Coach in Your Corner’ programme.

Skateboarding Taster Sessions:

Perfect for beginners and those looking to build confidence, these sessions cover the fundamentals of skateboarding—from pushing and turning to balance and stance. Our professional coaches provide a fun and supportive environment to help you find your footing.

What to Expect:

• All equipment provided – Skateboard, knee pads, elbow pads, wrist guards, and a helmet.
• Footwear – Flat-soled trainers only. No open-toed shoes (e.g., Crocs, sandals, flip-flops).
• Parental consent – A parent or guardian must sign a waiver on the day and inform us of any pre-existing health conditions.
• Age requirement – Participants must be at least 7–8 years old and able to take part in a group learning environment.

Additional Opportunities:

Young people attending six or more sessions may earn the SkateboardGB Cruiser Award—the UK’s first nationally recognised award for beginner skateboarders.

Wet Weather Plan:

Skateboards don’t work in the rain! If wet weather strikes, sessions may be adapted to balance-based activities under shelter. However, space is limited, and some sessions may need to be rescheduled or cancelled in severe weather.

Come roll with us and discover the joy of skateboarding in a safe, inclusive, and exciting environment.
