Classes update

Due to the impact of coronavirus (COVID-19) on the local community, we are suspending scheduled skateboarding sessions in Asira and Ramallah. 

As the borders are currently closed, we will not be sending international volunteers to Palestine until further notice. 

Once our local partners have given the all clear, we will resume classes led by our local staff and local volunteers. This will be an opportunity to reassess how sustainable the current skate scene is at this stage, and what we need to work on so that it can become fully independent from international support going forward. 

In the meantime we will be working on further programme development, training local staff and volunteers, and recycling more skateboards in the West Bank so that the skaters can keep shredding.
