Giant foam pits, dodgeball courts and basketball slam-dunk lanes will also be included in the new venue, as well as foam pit slides, rope ladders, log rolls, a toddler area and aero ball, which is essentially volleyball which takes place on a trampoline.

Jump 360 Hartlepool – which is a £1.2million project – will also feature fitness classes, general bounce sessions and Jump Junior, where toddlers can take to the air for the first time.

The new facility is being built in an unused warehouse.

It is expected to open to the public towards the end of January.
