Give your skates a spruce up! Unsure about taking care of your skates, or do you have questions about the different parts? 

Bring your questions to our skate maintenance evening and we will take our skates apart, check and clean them and put them back together. 

Skate maintenance will take place 6:30 - 8 pm (ish).  We are happy for you to continue looking after your skates after this time, just be aware that our evening practise session runs from 7:30 - 9:30pm.

No need to bring your tools, you are welcome to use ours. If you don't have a skate tool though, we do recommend owning one as they are very useful! 

Once you have sorted your skates, you're welcome to stay for the evening practise session running until 9.30pm.  We do recommend popping your freshly maintained skates on, so if any adjustments need to be made, we are able to support you to do this.

Booking Terms & Conditions:

You are responsible for any work you undertake on your roller skates.  We advise participants to check the warranty on their roller skates to ensure it will not be affected.

Do I need to sign a waiver?

Yes, everyone who skates with Roller Girl Gang needs to sign a waiver.  For sessions at The Skate Sanctuary, you will complete a paper waiver the first time you come. This will be kept securely in digital form for one year, so that you do not need to sign each time. We ask that you let us know if your circumstances change, including  emergency contact details.

I have a Skate Pass, do I still need to book?

Yes, please still book your spot.  Please remember that if you are not able to make it, our cancellation policy does still apply.

Can I bring my own refreshments?

Yes, no problem! If you forget, we do offer soft drinks and just ask if you need your water bottle refilling.  Please make sure you are not eating and drinking while you skate, that includes chewing gum.

I wear inline skates, can I come?

Yup. We welcome all wheely-booted folks. You may find some skills do not translate directly to inline skates, however we can all do our best.

I don't identify as a girl, can I come?

Absolutely!  Roller Girl Gang was founded and is run by women, with the support of our fantastic volunteer team, to provide better access to roller skating for all genders and identities, especially marginalised folks.

What do I do if I have a problem?

Please speak to one of our skate marshall volunteers, who wear purple t-shirts. If they are unable to help you, they will find our lead skate marshall, who will do their best to assist. We have a Respect policy in place to keep everyone feeling as safe and supported as possible. In case of accidents, we always have at least one trained first aider in the room.

Will the shop be open during class?

As it is within The Skate Sanctuary, it is no problem to collect an order or check out items you may need.  We are not able to support skate fittings during class though.

How do I find the venue?

The Skate Sanctuary is near Aldi on Harrogate road, just off Macaulay Street on one side, and Mabgate on the other.  Access to Mabgate Mills is via Macaulay street and there is free parking at the venue after 5.30pm and at weekends.
