Plans for indoor trampoline centre

epsom way

A planning application has been submitted to create an indoor trampoline centre in Handforth.

High Heaven is proposing to use a vacant industrial warehouse unit at Brooke Park on Epsom Avenue for the new leisure facility. Unit 4 is the only empty property on the estate which has now been vacant for 30 months.

The proposed trampoline park is a recreational sports facility which would be open to the public for freestyle trampoline play, trampoline dodgeball and basketball, large foam cube pits and fitness classes. The open jump area will consist of a large area of safety-padded, wall-to-wall interconnecting trampolines.

The proposed use caters for individuals of all ages, as well as group events and birthday parties. Fitness Classes, incorporating aerial aerobics with calisthenics will also be provided.

High Heaven runs a number of indoor trampoline parks across the US and will be opening their first operation in Glasgow very soon.

The proposed opening hours are 9am to 9pm Monday to Thursday, 10am to midnight Friday and Saturday and 10am to 9pm on Sundays and Bank Holidays.

During the summer time, the proposed opening times will be from 10am to 11pm Monday to Thursday and between 9pm and midnight on Fridays and Saturdays when the applicant intends to open the venue for "Club High Heaven" nights for younger people aged 15+. These evenings will give young people somewhere different to go out and be active on a Friday and Saturday evening with DJʼs, live music, laser shows etc. No alcohol will be served at any time and will not be available to people coming to the trampoline park.

The application for the change of the existing industrial warehouse (open class "B1, B2 & B8" use) to a leisure use (class D2) can be viewed on the Cheshire East Council website by searching for reference 14/2083M.

The last date for submitting comments is 5th June and a decision is expected by 25th July.

This sounds a good idea, but it is a pity a "climbing wall" could not be incorporated too.

Great idea and use of empty space. Job creators too. Hope the council don't bounce the plans!!
