Birmingham Wheels Park is currently the subject of a huge effort to save it from the bulldozers of Birmingham City Council.

 

The Park is protected after a Government Inspector found that the sports offered at the Park were so important to the local community that they must be preserved - and these protections were adopted by the Council in their Development Plan - a document that forms part of their constitution.

​

Birmingham City Council are determined to destroy the Park, and with it 40+ years of sporting excellence, to sell the land to a (any?) property developer - probably for warehousing.

 

Birmingham Wheels Park is a unique sporting facility - which aims to create social capital via community engagement in wheeled sports - ranging from Inline Skating to Stockcar racing. 

​

With six sporting arenas, and tens of thousands of participants annually, Birmingham Wheels has been the sporting home to National and World Champions since it was created in 1984.
