Thank you everyone for your feedback regarding our entrance policy. Please find the latest statement issued to the media this morning. We listen to our customers and would welcome all feedback.This is a family attraction and would ask all comments are made in the appropriate polite manner.
Alistair Mead Managing Director of Puxton Park, said: We have not set out to discriminate against single adults but we take child protection extremely seriously.
“We would rather be over zealous when unaccompanied adults visit us armed with cameras than put children at any potential risk. Even schools follow similar policies with regards to the photography of children.
“Our members fully support our decisions and we have received nothing but praise for our policy including positive feedback from a Child Protection Specialist, who commended us for our child protection principals.
"Within seven years we have only had one complaint about this policy from the gentlemen last week.
"At the time of setting the policy the other parks within the area had a similar stance to us. I have spoken to two or three similar client based parks this morning and they still have the same policy as we do. I’m not going to name names as it’s unprofessional of me to do so.
"In light of this coverage we will look at what other parks are doing with their admissions policy, speak to our customers and review."
This may have already been mentioned, but it appears that Alistair Mead is a convicted drunk driver. Interesting to hear his judgement of others, particularly with respect to safety.
