Pendle play centre wins national award

An innovative community play centre in Pendle has been recognised at the AIP Industry Awards as the Best Indoor Attraction 6,000-12,000 sq ft in the UK.

FUNDA LAND includes a two floor UV Lazer Tag Zone, bumper cars, giant soft play, three private themed party rooms and has recently expanded its offerings to include a new Valo Interactive Climbing Wall and a baby and toddler sensory play area.

The diverse range of activities have been designed to stimulate physical, emotional, and cognitive development known as Physical Literacy to compliment FUNDA’s holistic PE programme, active curriculum, holiday camps and wraparound childcare offer for schools.

The AIP Industry Awards celebrate the best of indoor play and highlight the importance of innovation, excellence and community in the industry. This award celebrates FUNDA LAND's commitment to reshaping children's futures both in and out of school by promoting active, healthy lifestyles that last a lifetime.

"The UK government needs to recognise the potential of initiatives like FUNDA to empower children of today and in the future. We are making a positive difference here and now, I want children and families to know the importance of active play is to their child’s development."
