A CAMPAIGN by a local teenager to secure funding for upgrades at Langwarrin Skate Park has found more success.
A $20,000 grant for works at the skate park was handed out last year. Federal Labor has now committed to spending another $170,000 on the site if it wins the election.
Caiden, a 13-year-old skater, has been one of the leading voices in getting the skate park upgraded.
Dunkley MP Peta Murphy said “I’m pleased to be able to commit to this project if Labor wins the election this May, which will deliver a better Langwarrin skate park with facilities catering to all ages and abilities I’m also incredibly proud of Caiden for setting up his petition and showing the value of grassroots campaigning. I am thrilled to be supporting him.”
