There are fewer than 60 permanent ice rinks in the whole of the UK and only five across the south of England, including two in Berkshire. These permanent rinks cost a lot of money to run, as keeping the ice frozen all year uses a lot of energy, but they provide venues for sports such as ice hockey and figure skating.

There are between 50-60 permanent ice rinks in the UK, unsurprisingly most of which are internal due to unpredictable and often inclement weather.
