A skatepark is asking for the support of local residents through the purchase of its merchandise.

As the 2020 Skate and Ride skatepark has been forced to close once more as a result of the third national lockdown, it is promoting its new line of 2020 Skate and Ride t-shirts and sweatshirts.

All profits from sales go directly back into the running costs of the facility and delivery is available for those in the Bridport and Beaminster area.

A spokesman for the skatepark said: "As you are aware, the latest lockdown has meant us closing the skatepark doors yet again. We have only been operating since April, which means we have missed out on many of the grants available to other, longer-standing affected facilities. We are therefore looking for alternative ways of raising funds to keep the park afloat and welcome ideas you may have."
