Rejected petition Build a skate park in Hyde Park

As you may know, skateboarding has been on the rise especially with the addition of the sport to the olympics. Many young people are flooding the streets with their skateboards and clogging the pavements.

More details

A skatepark offers a place for skateboarders to go without risking hurting themselves or others in the streets with lots of pedestrians around. Additionally, a place for young people to work out energy or train may be beneficial for mental health among young people. We would like the local council to build a skatepark similar to the one in Guildford.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Hyde Park is managed by the Royal Parks, so any decision about constructing a skate park in Hyde Park would be a matter for them, not the Government or House of Commons.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
