***NEWS JUST IN***
So the latest exciting news is that Chill Factore will be having a permanent, real snow Burton Riglet Park within their facilities by, hopefully, the end of the winter 2015. So although not in time for this season, it is still great news and a good step forward for giving young children their first taste of snowboarding on snow in the UK.

(NB.They have been running a group course for 5 and 6 year olds (that had apparently been successful) but this is not being continued. We do not know why or if it will be replaced with something else?)
NB:
SnowZone
Castleford & Milton Keynes
During our research we were told by SnowZone that they do not teach under 7’s in any circumstances. So not one for any Mini Shredders.
