YOUNGSTERS are enjoying a brand-new soft play area at Stratford Leisure Centre

It has transformed part of the centre’s existing facilities into a safe, fun and engaging space, featuring slides, building blocks, spinning panels and sensory features, to help support learning and development for children aged up to eight.

Richard Bell, contract manager at Everyone Active, which runs the centre on behalf of Stratford District Council, said: “We’re thrilled to unveil our brand-new soft play facility which we hope will become a much-loved feature of Stratford Leisure Centre and is now open for families to enjoy.

“We’re thoroughly looking forward to welcoming new and existing members to our brand-new dedicated play facilities in time for Spring and of course the summer holidays following this fantastic investment.”




Julie Lewis, SDC’s neighbourhood services spokeswoman, said it provided a space where youngsters could both learn and have fun.

She added: “Working in partnership with Everyone Active, we are committed to offering high-quality leisure opportunities that support the health and wellbeing of our communities, and we look forward to seeing families enjoy this vibrant new addition.”
