A 15-year-old boy died after falling from his skateboard at Center Parcs in Woburn Forest, Bedford. The incident occurred on October 26, and despite the efforts of an air ambulance crew who transported him to Bedford Hospital South Wing, he passed away shortly after.

Center Parcs has expressed condolences and is supporting staff who responded to the emergency. This event follows a separate incident in September where a grandmother and staff member, Penny Bulpitt, was fatally struck by a car at the same location. Center Parcs is cooperating with authorities regarding both incidents.
