We as a community would like a skate park built in Peters Village for the youth

What the petition asks
As crime rate locally is rising we feel a skate park would be a great place for children and teens to let of steam. It's an all year round activity and its healthy. There's easy access as opposed to Burham with dangerous roads and not suitable for younger generations to get to by themselves.
Children riding around the streets can/has lead to accidental damage to cars and property. They get bored and choose to get up to mischief instead. We already have so many paper signatures and feel this is widely wanted from Wouldham, Peters Village, Snodland (rise in crime) and Halling.
Let's encourage the younger generation to have healthy fun whilst the parents know where they are and what they're doing.
