In December 2006 Andrew visited the roller disco At Canvas, Kings Cross, London and was amazed by the skating and the atmosphere. Early in 2007 Andrew took Rachael to Canvas and they decided they wanted to start their own roller disco!!! Along with Rachael’s then partner Ian they set up Rollerstrut LLP. Rachael spent many months finding insurance to cover buying alcohol on skates!! Rachael, Andrew and Ian decided that Manchester would be a good place to start the roller disco and negotiated a deal with Pure at the Printworks.
