The skate park at Bexhill leisure centre, now earmarked for demolition, has an incredibly passionate and vibrant community of riders and skaters.
The skate park is in desperate need of renovation – several accidents and near misses due to the state of the ramps and concrete occurred during the shooting of these photos. And with demolition on the horizon, the community here deserve a firm commitment from local government to the development of a new location.
Skate parks are positive and sociable community hubs which deserve serious investment to ensure they are safe spaces for up and coming athletes to practice and share their passion with others.

Fjellfolk is dedicated to providing a manageable, curated feed of news, essays and opinions on the subject of cities, technology and sustainability. Specifically we believe that cities, and the growing population of people who inhabit cities, represent both a significant sustainability challenge but also hold the key to overcoming these challenges.
I’d love to think that the content here will stimulate critical thinking and ideation to further grow the community of engaged citizens who have seen the future and realise we simply must find a way to live in harmony with our planet.
