💙 A Little Bit of Big News... 💙
Well... this is a post we never imagined we'd be writing.
After lots of chats, cups of tea, sleepless nights and soul-searching, we've made the incredibly difficult decision that it's time to start looking for someone new to take over the wonderful world of Jigsaw Gyms & Tiny Tykes Play.
Don't panic though! 🚨We are NOT closing. It's business as usual, and we'll continue welcoming your amazing families through our doors until the right person comes along.
Jigsaw Gyms first opened its doors back in 2009, and Tiny Tykes Play joined the family in 2023. Since then we've laughed, celebrated birthdays, watched thousands of children grow, and created memories we'll treasure forever. It's been an incredible journey.
The original plan was to keep going until I reached 67 in 2027, but unfortunately my health has had other ideas, and I've had to accept that now is the right time to start planning for the future.
The business is in a great place, but I truly believe a younger owner could bring fresh energy, exciting ideas and all those clever social media skills that would help Jigsaw Gyms & Tiny Tykes Play reach even greater heights.
None of this would have been possible without my amazing wife Sylvia, our fantastic, hardworking team, and every single family who has walked through our doors over the last 17 years. You've supported us through the highs, the challenges and everything in between, and for that we will be forever grateful. ❤️
One thing that's incredibly important to us is our staff. They've been loyal, dedicated and simply brilliant, so finding someone who values them and wants to see the business continue to flourish will be a huge part of any decision we make.
We've already had professional business valuations, but before officially placing the business on the market, we thought we'd ask the people who know and love it best...
✨ Could this be your next adventure?✨ Have you ever dreamed of owning a children's play centre?✨ Fancy swapping the 9-5 for laughter, birthday parties, coffee, soft play and making memories every day?
For the right person, we'd be happy to consider offers well below the professional valuation. The business and premises are available on either a freehold or leasehold basis.
If you'd like a completely informal chat (no pressure, no hard sell!), please email:

Finally, from the bottom of our hearts...
Thank you.
Thank you for trusting us with your children, celebrating your special moments with us, recommending us to your friends, and helping make Jigsaw Gyms & Tiny Tykes Play what it is today.
Who knows... perhaps the next chapter starts with someone reading this post. ❤️
Please feel free to like, comment and share. You never know who might be looking for the opportunity of a lifetime.
💙 A quick note before we finish... 💙
We'd like to reassure everyone once again that Jigsaw Gyms & Tiny Tykes Play are not closing. Business will continue exactly as normal while we look for the right new owner, and we'll still be here welcoming you through our doors as always.
If you have any enquiries about the business, we'll be happy to help. However, please note that from 26th July until 4th August I will be on annual leave and away on holiday, so I won't have access to emails during this time. Any emails, enquiries, questions or messages received during this period will be responded to as soon as possible from 4th August onwards.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support – it truly means the world to us. ❤️
