A Cardiff trampoline park and its owner have admitted criminal charges over failing to report injuries suffered by four people who were hospitalised. The accidents at Supajump near Cardiff Bay all happened on separate occasions.
Philip Henry Booth, 60, pleaded guilty to four counts of failing to report an accident which saw a person taken to hospital from the American-themed indoor leisure site in Trident Trade Park. The injuries were sustained on or around February 10, 2018; April 12, 2018; April 18, 2019; and August 9, 2019.
Booth also admitted two counts of failing to ensure people were not exposed to health and safety risks from using play equipment at Supajump. These offences took place from August 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018, and from August 1, 2018 to August 30, 2019.
