Skate Strategies and Facility Planning
Activskate specialises in developing long and medium-term facility planning strategies for community skate parks. Our strategies guide the planning, design, development, activation and evaluation phases of your projects.
Our approach to strategic planning:
- Our plans link investment to participation outcomes and locations.
- We identify the gaps and opportunities through an economic development and community impact lens.
- We link the communities’ aspirations to your broader strategic goals.
- We develop an outcomes hierarchy model and use data to inform all our recommendations.
- We create the places and networks that promote physical literacy outcomes
Skate Facility Participation Analysis, Consultations Programming
Local and state governments have invested millions in providing skate facilities without being able to measure the return on investment through facility usage, participation outcomes, and community impact. If the question is, what does value for money look like when investing in a skate facility? Activskate can help.
Unique to Activate is our Live Strategy Model! Activate can provide a transparent and honest analysis of your existing investment and its impacts, as well as develop a strategy and plan to increase your return on your initial or future investments.
Our approach:
- We undertake a detailed facility analysis and provide our clients with a quantitative and qualitative understanding of facility usage and impacts.
- Develop short- and long-term strategies to increase participation through activation plans, design adjustments and infrastructure profiling.
- We help our partners understand the impacts of design types and how they relate to activity past a cohort of existing users.
- Create connections and systems to foster and develop local leadership.
We bring the VISION, planning, and results to your skatepark project
Community Engagement and Facility Locations
Finding the right location for a skate facility can be tricky.
The Activskate team can support local councils with the community engagement aspect of the planning by addressing the valid concerns of residents and community groups. We do this by working with the parties (councils and/or residents) to drill down on the root causes of the issues and address them through practical and innovative solutions and data.
We provide our stakeholders with evidence and ongoing support, so skate facilities become a place for the whole community.
Our approach :
- We mediate the real and perceived conflict by validating concerns and providing solutions.
- We help mitigate potential concerns through debunking or validating claims.
- We ensure community connectedness is at the heart of all decisions by providing mutually beneficial outcomes and solutions
- We are here for the long run as we aim to create a level of local leadership (community custodians) that support and address the concerns past the project completion
