A TRAMPOLINE park in Deeside will close its doors next week.
Jump 2 It, based on Deeside Industrial Estate, was the first indoor trampoline park of its kind in North Wales, according to its owners.
The park opened in September 2016 and created about 30 local jobs but will close its doors for the final time on June 18.
Owner Ryan Corbett said they made the difficult decision because of increased business rates and expensive insurance premiums.
He added: “It will be a shame to see it go but we are just thankful to all of our customers who have supported us from day one. It will hit them the hardest.
“Families used us for a respite for children with additional needs. We provided a place for them to go and have fun and everyone has been so loyal to us.
"It wasn’t a decision we wanted to make.”
Mr Corbett said the business had been struggling for a few months and there was not much support available for small, independent businesses.
He said: “The way I look at it is if you don’t try you’ll never know, but that’s just the way it is.”
