Trampoline park owner sentenced over injuries
The owner of an indoor trampoline park where four children broke their legs has been given a suspended sentence.The children, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were hurt at Supajump on Trident Trade Park, Ocean Way, Cardiff.
Four children suffered broken legs, another fractured her spine, and a sixth sustained facial injuries. Mr Harrison added there was no suitable supervision of young children and no reporting took place which would have triggered a review of the premises to see if it was up to standard. Mum Amy said: "It's horrific how there can be somewhere you take your children thinking you are having a nice day thinking it's safe because you assume the people running the parks have done all the right safety things."Of the six children whose injuries were part of the case, the court heard one child, aged eight, got stuck underneath an airbag trampoline in October 2017 and had difficulty breathing.
In February 2018, another girl, aged three, broke her leg after an adult in his 30s landed on top of her while doing a star jump. The child was crying and was offered an ice pack. In April 2019, a nine-year-old girl broke her thigh bone in the foam pit, and in August that year another girl, also nine, fractured her spine in the same area of the trampoline park. Neither incident was reported.
