Return to Skating. Aberdeen it’s ice skating time
For ice skating coach Gillian Thompson, skaters getting back on the ice this week hasn’t come a minute too soon.

She said: “I am absolutely delighted to get back on the ice, after such a long time away it will just be a relief to see my students and get back to what we do best.
“During lockdown we have tried our best to make sure the students don’t lose their strength or flexibility by running sessions over zoom, but it just isn’t the same.”
