£500,000 soft play will create 7 jobs

A NEW children's soft play centre is set to create seven jobs.

Hetland Garden Centre are opening the £500,000 attraction next summer at their Carrutherstown site.

It will feature a three storey soft play area with a ball pool, a log climb and slide, which will all have a dinosaur theme, in keeping with their current Dino Park.
There will also be a new cafe area.
Hetland owner David Wilson said: “It is good for the area. We are a well established centre, and our Dino Park is proving very popular.
“The aim now is to have an all weather attraction for the centre.”
He added: “There will be a new canopy so that we can build this new facility.
“This means there will be another seven new jobs at the centre.”
The project will also be using primarily local contractors and will commence shortly.
