Two of our staff are braving a skydive for children’s hospice southwest. Andy and Katie will take to the sky on the afternoon of the 21st May 2022 weather permitting. The target is £1000 between them for the skydive but hopefully they will raise more. You will see them with our characters in towns and cities around Cornwall collecting towards this total and also they are organising a charity quiz night and raffle at the Central Bar in Truro.

Summertime Entertainment is remaining closed currently due to Covid-19. We are monitoring government guidelines and as soon as it’s safe to open we will inform you of the date. Due to the government not knowing much about the virus and how long it can last on surface we would have to spend hours cleaning each item every night, We would also have to put ourselves at risk to deliver to your house which currently we don’t think that it’s safe enough, we can’t safely attend your property, set up and go through all the safety checks that’s required by law without approaching you. Also the police have advised that they are concerned regarding some companies hiring castles to people in their back gardens. They are concerned that neighbours with children will see it and want to go on it and although 99% will not allow other on them, it’s the small amount of people that will break the rules and then it makes our company look back and makes the risk of infection higher. We fully understand you have bored children at home, but remember a few hours of fun isn’t worth getting sick for. Some of the unprofessional companies will probably hirer you a castle and probably for cheap, But they won’t have the yearly Pipa test or insurance so don’t please with your families lives and hire from a company you can trust, always look for the BIHA logo. I will place it below for you to see. You can also go onto the BIHA website and Half way down the page is a map of the UK covered in thousands of red markers. Use two fingers and zoom in on Cornwall and you can check the companies registered with the BIHA and it will also tell you where they are based.
