Sports fans from across the country are being urged to sign an online petition after news emerged that Whitley Bay Ice Rink – along with various other local amenities in the same area – have been included in a plan for a new housing development by North Tyneside Council.
We have already lost Durham, Sunderland and Newcastle as ice hockey venues in the North East and can’t afford to lose any more.
You can find out more about the Development plans here: http://www.northtyneside.gov.uk/browse.shtml?p_subjectCategory=182
