Gravity statement as fittings ripped out of Time Square units

It comes after fixtures and fittings were ripped out of the trampoline park’s Time Square unit, as well as Newton’s bar and restaurant next door, which is part of the same company.

Photos taken of the Gravity unit this morning, Monday, show the removal of trampolines and the ‘Ninja Run’ obstacle course fixtures.

The same can be said of Newton’s, with bar fittings, tables and booth seating also absent.

A statement has now been fixed in the window of the Gravity unit addressed to ‘all Gravity Warrington customers and staff’.

This reads: “Due to unforeseen circumstances outside of the main company’s control, the park will be temporarily closed while Gravity works hard to re-establish the capacity of its Warrington venue.

“Gravity is supporting all staff while the site is closed and is committed to its Warrington venue, and all the team there.

“Although disappointing to be closed during the summer holidays, when so many families are looking to entertain their children, Gravity has contacted those people affected to apologise for the inconvenience, and to resolve this and issue refunds.”

Michael Harrison, co-founder of Gravity, added: “We are committed to supporting the staff on site and opening the venue, so families and kids can get back to their summer plans and enjoying some fun family time.”

The statement adds that this is an ‘isolated issue’ involving the franchise site at Warrington, with no other parks affected.
