Our open letter to parents: let them play

This week, our Managing Director, Suraj Sodha, wrote an open letter to every parent. In it, we back the Government's plans to restrict social media for under-16s.

We know that's not what you usually hear from a trampoline company, so here's the short version.

What the letter says

• We're not anti-screen. Used well, and at the right age, social media can open a child's eyes to the world.
• We are against the algorithm. A feed built to keep an 11-year-old scrolling at 11pm isn't social. It's a business model.
• It's about childhood. The right to be bored on a Tuesday, to skin a knee, and to have a Saturday nobody posted.

Not every family will agree, and that's fine. Parenting is hard enough without a trampoline company telling you how to do it. We'll keep doing what we've always done: making garden time an easy swap for screen time, whenever you're ready.
