Rejected petition Save soft play industry especially if children can go to school/nursery
Rejected on
Allow play industry to remain open
Children's mental health (& parents alike) is being neglected. If schools/nurseries remain open for all children, allowing them to mix with a 'bubble' which has far higher number of children than a soft play centre is allowed in one sitting, how is this any safer? No stats have been given to support this decision.
Indoor play industries have taken further measures to ensure the safety of all visitors, & are far more safe & clean than most outdoor places!
