Transforming people & places through skateboarding.
Skate Nottingham is a non-profit place-making, sports development and alternative education organisation rooted in Nottingham’s globally significant skateboarding community. We use skateboarding as a tool to unlock learning and creativity, with an aim to raise the profile of skateboarding as a positive, healthy and creative activity that contributes to Nottingham's social, cultural and economic development.

Skate Nottingham 2025 survey
Give us your suggestions for 2025 and help shape the work we do for Nottingham!
After a very busy 2024, full of free skate events, sessions, workshops & exhibitions, we're finishing the year by planning our 2025 activities.
As we apply for new funding that aligns with our mission to transform people & places through skateboarding, your views will help us better understand what people would like to see happening in the Notts scene.
You can also get an understanding of ways that you can get involved, such as volunteering, coaching, building new things, actively taking a role in the upkeep of Nottingham skateparks, and more.
