We offer a friendly and welcoming accessibility session called SNAPS, which is perfect for those who require additional support on the ice.

SNAPS consists of a wonderful group of parents and carers of young people with various disabilities/complex and additional needs who provide term time and holiday activities. Activities are provided for the whole family with children and young adults with special or additional needs who are located in the Tees Valley area. There are a range of activities offered across Tees Active’s venues including a weekly session at Billingham Forum Ice Arena every Friday morning.
