Pure genius putting it in a shopping centre!!!!


Drop the kids off (and their dads) while the mothers go shopping for the day!!!!


Now I can see that would take off!!!

For a park on this scale, you must employ a professional fundraiser.  You're looking at hundreds of thousands of pounds.

And a bloody big building......

Isn't Unit23 or some other park in Scotland in a shopping mall?

That'll be transgression in Edinburgh...

it sounds defeatest, but you may just be throwing money away. Derby storm cost iro £30k per year to insure alone.

If you run it as a charity or community facility you will get more support. Try it as a business and you may struggle

good luck matey

The guy that owns unit23 owns these units paid for by a haulage business he owns

I looked into this a few years ago and your looking at a large factory unit that the rent and rates will kill you on 

You have a mountain to climb and even if you get the premises its gonna take a lot of business savy to get enough revenue to keep it going.

Sorry to sound negative but i did seriously go about visiting premises extra years ago looking into this as glasgows only indoor is in dumbarton which aint exactly easily acessible its miles away lol and at the time they never had their bowl and ramps were a bit kack etc

but on a positive note ! during this resession there is gonna be a lot of premises going cheap.
