SkateHive runs supportive and inclusive sessions in public skateparks in Nottingham to build a network and a safe haven for women and girl skateboarders of any ability.

Skateboarding culture should be an inclusive, diverse, and welcoming space for everyone. We are breaking down barriers and challenging stereotypes, one kickflip at a time. Whether you're young or old(er), a seasoned pro or just stepping onto your first board, you belong here.

Our collective is a celebration of the fearless, the fierce, and the future. We're on a mission to amplify the voices of underrepresented skaters, share stories of triumph, and create a supportive network for all. We embrace and encourage self-expression through skating, art, and individuality.

Join us in redefining the skateboarding landscape. Together, we push the boundaries of what's possible and prove that everyone has the right to shred, to soar, and to conquer the concrete jungle. Let's ride, inspire, and pave the way for more inclusive skateboarding in Nottingham and beyond!
