They did it! Three skaters -  Liam Lofthouse, Will Hudson, Kris Dutson-Bromley and Nathan Knight (who supported us on his bike) - from Bradford City Square to X-Scape at Castleford - 42 miles in total on skate boards!

There were bumps, there were blisters, there were scrapes and there were a few falls - but they did it! 

They chose Street Angels - CNI Network as the charity to raise money for - a special fund to help new projects who are wanting to make a difference in towns and cities across the UK...
  
  


Skate 4 Change is a event set up by 5 teens in Bradford West Yorkshire. Having seen inspiration from Ryan Swain who skated 52 miles across country for charity, these 5 youths took it upon themselves to make a difference by doing something they love- Skating.  

They plan on doing 42 miles each from Bradford City Park- right in the heart of Bradford to the mass Leisure complex in Glasshoughton Xscape and back again. 

When first talking about this event the lead teen Will Hudson said

‘We just want to make a difference’ 

Both him and a fellow skate went on social networking site Facebook setting up a fan page for the event and quickly gained support from local people! Along with taking to youtube to spread the word about their plans! 

They set off on the 25th July 2012 and are asking for all the sponsorship they can get for their chosen charity! They are doing it all for Street Angels - CNI Network!
