Some even have families of their own. This is not the fault of Steyning Parish Council but opponents who obstruct any change.

The parish council is once again revisiting its original plan to provide a skatepark facility. Previously, the council produced a well-designed plan which was put to residents in a town poll (16 per cent more ‘yes’ votes) and a public meeting (over 70 per cent in favour).
