The group needs to raise up to �45,000 to build their own park

The skaters, from Burghfield Common, south of Reading, currently ride their boards in the street.

Julie Maidment said she and other parents want the park over concerns for their children's safety.

She said they have the support of local residents, police, schools and councils but that no funding was available.

"The kids are forced to skate out on the streets, very often being told to move on," she said.

"We want our children to be safe and happy and fit. "
