Havant play centre at Dobbies Garden Centre to reopen

Dobbies Garden Centre will be reopening its soft play in its Havant store on Monday with social distancing measures in place to protect families.

The centre has reduced capacity and customers are asked to book in advance and data will be collected for NHS Test and Trace.

It will also be cleaned and sanitised before opening, mid-way through the day and after closing.

Firm Atalian Servest have been employed to apply Zoono antibacterial cleaning product fortnightly.

Dobbies chief executive Graeme Jenkins said: ‘We have successfully reopened garden centres and restaurants across the UK, and are well-place to welcome customers into our soft plays.

‘Thank you to all team members who have worked hard to ensure our soft plays are ready and we look forward to welcoming visitors for a fun and safe day out.’

There are extra hand cleaning stations, and adults will be required to wear face coverings until seated at a table within the soft play area.

Face coverings are not required for children under 11.
