New soft play area to replace closing facilities

A new children's soft play area is being installed in Jersey to replace facilities at a sports centre.

Jersey Development Company said it was supporting the government with the soft play area in St Helier's Waterfront development with the aim of having it ready for use by late summer.

It said the area would replace existing facilities at Fort Regent, which is set to close at the end of the year.

The company said it would be taking expressions of interest from Jersey operators and businesses wanting to run the new facility.
