I have had messages over the last few months regarding other local Lego workshop locations. Pop over to Barneys page as they have a workshop coming up & are running a competition for half place places.

https://m.independent.ie/business/personal-finance/thousands-of-jobs-at-risk-after-main-insurer-for-leisure-sector-pulls-out-38329493.html

This time last year I made the upsetting & difficult decision to close the doors of my much loved little play centre in Ennis after only 3 years open due to the hike in our insurance after a claim was put in against us.
At the time time we couldn't even shop around for insurance as just one company would even touch us for cover & they were the UK based leisureInsure. This of course also meant that no matter what price they quoted us year after year, we would have to try pay it to keep our doors open as there was no other insurance company that would take us on.
I have woke up this morning, a year on to see LeisureInsure are now pulling out of insuring many playcentres, bouncing castle companies & many other leisure businesses with an estimated job loss of 4,500.
This is what it has come to due to the claiming culture in our country over the last number of years.
Sad day for many business owners.

The insurance crisis has escalated after one of the last firms covering the leisure sector pulled out of the market. The move puts thousands of jobs at risk.

The next 12months are not looking good for play centres in Ireland.

A businesswoman who is spearheading a group for insurance reform has warned that play centres in Ireland will all be closed in 12 months because of fraudulent and exaggerated claims.

A lovely little girl came up to me at the counter today...She told me she had to show me something on the chalkwall. So down I went expecting to see a drawing...She had made up a poem for me & the girls at jumping jacks with a little help from her lovely mammy! They have been coming to us since we opened so hugs & tears followed after read it 💛

It says:
Places to go, there are a lot
But this one is our favourite spot
Mammy needs coffee & a friendly ear
The little ones rejoice, playing near
Princess or doctor, let's dress up
Andrea & the girls leave no mess to clean up
Kids learn & bounce & play
Getting them tired for the end of the day
Laughs, smiles the occasional tear
A lovely birthday party each year
Time to unwind, time to relax...
Thanks for the memories Jumping Jacks

Was literally speechless...for once 😉
Thanks so much Liadán x
