A NEW mobile skate park is touring Darlington this summer - and youngsters are being invited to join in the fun.

The Truck facility is now open to skateboarders, BMX bikers and bladers in the area.

It will be available at Hurworth Grange Community Centre on Mondays, from 2pm until 6pm; at the Model T car park, Mowden, on Tuesdays, from 3pm until 7pm; at Branksome School on Thursdays, from 2pm until 7pm; and at Eastbourne Sports Complex on Fridays, from 3pm until 9pm, and on Sundays, from 10am until 4pm.

The Truck will also be at Eastbourne Sports Complex on Thursday, August 26, from 10am until 4pm, as part of the Street Games Festival.

The park costs £3 for six 20-minute sessions and children under eight years old must be accompanied by an adult.
