A popular play attraction at Rushden Lakes has closed until further notice due to the coronavirus outbreak.

The closure of 360 Play at the retail and leisure complex comes just weeks after it re-opened following damage caused by Storms Ciara and Dennis.

A statement on the 360 Play website said: "We are sorry to announce that following the government advice to us all on reducing social interaction and to avoid smaller public spaces, we have taken the difficult decision to close all our 360 Play centres until further notice.

"The health and safety of all our staff and guests is our top priority.

"The decision we have taken today has been made with all of you and your families in mind and to try to help reduce the transmission of the virus.

"Please be assured our team has been working hard over the last few weeks to do everything within our power to ensure 360 Play was as safe as it could be but in light of the changing advice over the last few days we have had to take the decision to close.

"Our team are still contactable during this time so if you have any questions or comments or just want to talk to us, we would love to hear from you.

"If you have an existing booking or pass with us."

And the statement added: "As a family business we are devastated to announce this decision but everyone’s health and safety must come first.

"We’d like to thank you for your loyalty and understanding during this uncertain time.

"We look forward to welcoming you again, hopefully very soon."
