Would defiantely be a good thing, but someone needs to check their facts....

David Sterland, of Chill Factore, said that snow-sports enthusiasts currently have to travel to Castleford, in west Yorkshire, or to Milton Keynes to use real-snow facilities.

This looks like it's definitely going to go ahead! I have also been told by 2or3 ppl that it has been covered in local radio news.
Rock on the Chill Factor and it's "combined length of 180 metres and a total drop of 40 metres. Up to 250 people will be allowed on the slopes at any time."
