Cheers

Message if you're going throught the proper channels for an indoor park the first thing you'll need is a lot of dedication and a team of people to help you out. there is a lot to consider from what we have seen i.e. location, a property, rent, insurance, many legal aspects the actual layout, utilities, business plan, research about what your users require from a park and to mention a fair bit of cash.
Unfortunately this is the state of affairs with trying to do something positive like this for people in this country. Having said this it is possible and there are a lot of success stories around.

if you need any extra advice drop me a line and i can put you in touch
