Mobile Skatepark - Social Enterprise for NEETs

Great news - we have 40% of the funding needed to purchase the mobile skatepark equipment (half pipes, ramps, spare skateboards, pads, trailer etc). Three other sources of grants being pursued, as well as support from local sponsors.

A good contact made with regard to social investment bonds/social impact funding. Thanks Bill - will pursue this in September when we are all around.

Still have a funding task - and keen to hear from individuals and organisations with an interest in helping young people to develop some business skills, and in delivering diversionary activities that will bring down youth crime in some of the underserved areas of the borough of Barnet.

If you would like a summary document that describes the project in more detail then e-mail me karen@flourishing.me.uk for an information sheet.
