Bouncy Castles;
Bouncy Castles;
Due to the accidental death in Harlow Essex where seven year old Summer Grant was killed when storm winds lifted the Bouncy Castle into the air causing her death.
The operators of the Bouncy Castle have been arrested and charged with the manslaughter of Summer. It is my belief that the organisers (the management) of the event will also face prosecution for allowing the Bouncy Castle to set up their air inflated Bouncy Castle taking into consideration the weather and high stormy winds.
It is obvious that local councils Health & Safety Departments will be issuing new guide lines regarding Bouncy Castles and in the interim period I will not allow Bouncy Castles at any of our Car Boot locations until Cornwall Council have advised further.
I genuinely regret any inconvenience caused to the Bouncy Castle operators and ask them to accept my decision until further notice.
