Adrenaline Alley

Who we are

Adrenaline Alley... Building on success

Adrenaline Alley is one of Europe’s largest indoor BMX and Skateboard Parks boasting a unique combination of ramps, foam pits and training areas catering for new riders, world champions and future Olympians.

The ‘Alley’ is a charity trading as a social enterprise. That means we work with the local community, the council and local charities to create jobs, training, and volunteering opportunities and to provide somewhere safe and secure for young people to take part in their sport. We then plough our profits back into the charity to help us reach our vision.

We continue to expand and develop to meet local need and national demand and have purchased our 6-acre site and trebled the business over the last 10 years.

Our Model

The successful engagement model with local young people begins with consultation, encouraging participation and providing opportunities for young people to volunteer, undertake training courses, apprenticeships leading to real qualifications to help secure employment or further education.

This leads to a ‘pyramid of participation’ where, through positive engagement and outreach work, young people become core users of the Alley that leads to volunteering, training, and employment. Adrenaline Alley is, first and foremost, a BMX and skateboard park that also caters for all urban wheeled sports.

Through our model we encourage young people to move on to other employment or further education or access other services or indeed remain with us to increase and improve their skills until they can engage in a career or educational pathway.
