Jump for Joy – Moray prides itself on safety, we wouldn’t risk our child’s safety and therefore we won’t risk your child’s safety. A bouncy castle is not a toy, and if proper safety procedures are not followed then accidents may occur. We follow very strictly the below regulations for bouncy castle hires:

Outdoor hires are only available from Start April to Start October
Weather Conditions:Wind

Keeping in line with the legislation set out by the government legislation we are sadly not able to provide Bouncy Castle hires on any hard surfaces other than grass unless it is indoors.
Why can’t you just use a Sandbag?
We could in theory just use sandbags and this would be acceptable by law however, each anchor point would require approximately 56 sandbags or 1400kg of weight. This is not practical and wouldn't be cost effective. There are companies within the area that can fix to concrete, but they use bolts drilled into the concrete, if you require like our recommended companies, please contact us.
1 Sandbag Per Anchor Point is NOT Suitable, Adequate, or Safe!At the end of the day its yours, your families, or friends’ children's lives at risk, please don't risk it!
