3.9 Gift voucher payments will normally be refunded by issuing a replacement gift voucher rather than a cash refund.

 

4. WEATHER

The Playground is an outdoor activity and operates in most weather conditions.

Rain, mud, cold and general British weather are not normally reasons for cancellation or refund.

For safety reasons, we may need to close or suspend activities because of conditions including, but not limited to:

  • High winds

  • Lightning

  • Ice

  • Extreme weather

  • Flooding

  • Other conditions that we reasonably consider unsafe

Where we have to cancel or close for safety reasons, we will contact affected customers as soon as reasonably possible and provide an alternative date or refund where appropriate.

 

5. CHANGES TO THE PLAYGROUND

We continually maintain and develop The Playground.

For safety, maintenance, operational or other reasonable reasons, we may temporarily close individual obstacles or make changes to the course.

We will endeavour to provide as many obstacles as possible, but we cannot guarantee that every obstacle will be available during every session.

We may also temporarily close all or part of The Playground where reasonably necessary for safety, operational reasons, staff availability, special events or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

 

6. SAFETY & BEHAVIOUR

The Playground is a physical activity and participants must take reasonable care of themselves and others.

All participants must:

  • Follow instructions given by our Playmakers and staff.

  • Follow the safety briefing before taking part.

  • Use the obstacles in the manner explained by our staff.

  • Take reasonable care when climbing, jumping, sliding, crawling or entering water/mud areas.

  • Give other participants sufficient space.

  • Report any accident, injury or significant hazard to a member of staff immediately.

    Pushing, shoving, reckless behaviour or deliberately putting yourself or others at risk is not permitted.

    We reserve the right to remove anyone who behaves in a way that we reasonably consider unsafe, disruptive or dangerous.

    No refund will normally be provided where a participant is removed because of unsafe or unacceptable behaviour.

 

7. ALCOHOL & DRUGS

Participants must not take part while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

We reserve the right to refuse participation or remove anyone we reasonably believe is under the influence or whose behaviour presents a risk to themselves or others.

 

8. MEDICAL CONDITIONS & FITNESS

The Playground involves physical activity and participants should consider their own health and fitness before taking part.

If you have a medical condition, injury, disability, pregnancy or any other circumstance that may affect your ability to participate safely, please contact us before booking or speak to a Playmaker on arrival.

You should seek appropriate medical advice where necessary before taking part.

We may recommend that a participant does not take part where we reasonably believe participation could present a significant safety risk.

Participants must tell a Playmaker if they feel unwell, injured or unable to continue.

 

9. CHILDREN

Parents, guardians and responsible adults remain responsible for the children in their care.

Our Playmakers supervise the activity and provide instructions and assistance, but they do not replace the responsibility of a parent or guardian.

Children aged 5 and 6 must be accompanied around the course by a paying, participating adult.

 

10. DISABILITY & ACCESSIBILITY

We welcome participants with disabilities and will make reasonable efforts to accommodate individual needs where possible.

Because The Playground is an outdoor assault course involving uneven ground, climbing, mud, water and physical obstacles, not every part of the course will necessarily be accessible to everyone.

If you have accessibility requirements or would like to discuss whether The Playground is suitable for you or someone in your group, please contact us before booking.

 

11. JEWELLERY & PERSONAL ITEMS

For safety reasons, participants should remove jewellery before taking part.

This includes rings, earrings, watches and other loose items that could cause injury or become caught on an obstacle.

Please secure phones, keys and other personal belongings before entering the course.

Personal belongings are brought to The Playground at the owner’s own risk.

We cannot accept responsibility for loss, theft or damage to personal belongings except where we are legally responsible.

 

12. FIRST AID & ACCIDENTS

Our Playmakers are trained to provide appropriate first aid within the scope of their training.

If you are injured or become unwell during your visit, please tell a member of staff immediately.

We will take reasonable steps to provide assistance and, where necessary, contact the emergency services.

 

13. PHOTOGRAPHY & VIDEO

Photography and video may take place at The Playground for marketing and promotional purposes.

Where identifiable photographs or video are intended for use by The Playground, we will operate an appropriate consent/opt-out process.

If you do not wish to be photographed or filmed for promotional purposes, please tell a member of staff before your session.

Photography by customers for personal use is permitted provided it does not interfere with the safety, privacy or enjoyment of other participants.

 

14. GIFT VOUCHERS

Gift vouchers are subject to the terms shown at the time of purchase.

Unless otherwise stated, gift vouchers are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase and can be used towards eligible Pay & Play bookings at either Cambridge or Ipswich.

15. PRIVATE BOOKINGS, PARTIES & GROUPS

Private bookings, birthday parties, corporate sessions, school visits, sports sessions and other group bookings may be subject to additional booking conditions communicated at the time of booking.

Where additional terms apply, those terms will form part of your booking.

 

16. LIABILITY

The Playground involves physical activity and there is an inherent risk of injury.

We take reasonable steps to maintain the course, provide safety information and instructions, and operate the activity safely.

Nothing in these Terms & Conditions excludes or limits any liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or any rights or remedies you have under applicable consumer law.

We are not responsible for loss or damage to personal belongings except where we are legally responsible.

Nothing in these Terms & Conditions affects your statutory rights as a consumer.

Where there is a conflict between these Terms & Conditions and a mandatory legal right, the applicable law will take precedence.

These Terms & Conditions are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

Any disputes will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, subject to any applicable consumer rights.
