- Project: Create a new skatepark in Alyth, in response to the Community Action Plan.
- Funding: £40,000 so far for site acquisition and equipment purchase.
- Current status: Volunteer group assessing Skatepark equipment required and negotiating over final choice of site.
- Next steps: Determine the specific skatepark equipment required; select a site for the park. An area of Jubilee Park was identified in a lengthy public consultation in 2023/24 and subsequently approved in principle by Perth & Kinross Council and Alyth Amateurs Football Club, although not yet confirmed.
- Get involved: join the working group to help oversee equipment selection and site development.

ADT is supporting a working group looking to develop a brand-new skatepark in the town. The group is identifying suitable equipment and looking to find a potential site in Alyth.
Total funding secured so far is £40k for site preparation and purchase of equipment and installations. Two thirds of the money came from the Scottish Government’s Community-Led Local Development Fund and the remainder from ADT.
