Elgin Ice Rink to re-open in October
It follows a massive community effort to save the facility
Elgin Ice Rink is re-opening next month.
Moray Leisure says "it follows an unprecedented community effort led by the Ice Rink Joint User Group, who worked in partnership with Moray Leisure Centre management, staff, and the Board to create a new operating model.
“The last few months have been tough for everyone who relies on the rink, but this outcome shows what is possible when a community comes together. Thanks to this collaboration, we’ve not just reopened the rink - we hope to have safeguarded a place for future generations to discover and enjoy ice sports. We can’t wait to see the rink busy again with people of all ages enjoying skating, curling, and hockey right here in Elgin.”
Staff at the rink have already been told they are no longer facing redundancy.
The re-opening date is the 5th of October.
