The contract term will be an initial 1 year, with a possible 1 year extension subject to agreement. The Ice Rink has been running in Calverley Grounds for 10 years. In previous year's, the Ice Rink attracted nearly 40,000 skaters, with increased footfall to the area from visitors watching the skaters or who just come along for a walk within the grounds.
