USERS of the Planet Ice facility in the Basingstoke Leisure Park are being asked to show their support for the rink.

As previously reported in The Gazette a campaign called #keepiceinbasingstoke aims to put pressure on Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council to provide a temporary ice rink while the £300 million Leisure Park redevelopment is being carried out.

Members of the Basingstoke Ice Rink Users Forum are calling on all Planet Ice users to attend the next full council meeting on March 28 to rally round and show the borough council how important the rink is to the town.

Forum member Stewart Tempest will be addressing the council at the meeting.
