SKATERS can take to a rink in Saltburn, later this month.

The artificial ice surface will be in the town's Station Square on Saturday and Sunday, November 24 and 25.

It will be open to the public from 10am to 8pm, on Saturday, and from 10am to 6pm, on Sunday.

Up to 30 skaters at a time will be able to skate to music.

The rink will be enlivened with Christmas trees, decorations and artificial snow to create a festive atmosphere.

To help those new to skating, there will be a coach for both days, and children will get a certificate of achievement for developing their skating skills.

The Saltburn Agora Partnership decided to put on this free event for youngsters as a direct result of a youth survey, undertaken in partnership with Groundwork in the summer.
