Fire-hit trampoline park set to bounce back

- By CLAIRE HARRISON News Reporter

DESIGNS are being put into place for a ‘bigger and brighter’ trampoline park to replace the fireravage­d facility in Bedworth.

Bosses at Red Kangaroo say that landlords are drawing up plans for the new-look venue following the devastatin­g blaze which tore through the popular trampoline park off School Lane.

This is with a view of opening by the end of this year.

The news comes as the firm continues to receive an influx calls from people wanting to know when the facility will reopen again.

A spokespers­on explained: “The landlords will be submitting their planning permission applicatio­n in the next few months so the park can be redevelope­d in to a bigger and brighter facility where the space is more usable.

“We are still hoping to be open by the end of 2019.

“Once planning has been submitted and hopefully approved the timescales will be far more accurate.”

At the height of the blaze back on October 18 last year, more than 70 firefighte­rs tackled the flames. They managed to stop the fire from spreading to the reception area however the rest of the building, including the main trampoline park, was completely destroyed.

Specialist fire investigat­ors from Warwickshi­re Fire and Rescue were called in to probe the cause of the fire and they concluded it was accidental.
