An attraction to change the world

As part of a global project to unite children across the world, a unique new attraction is scheduled to open at the two Crealy Great Adventure Parks later this year.

The attraction is similar to the Roundabout PlayPumps installed across African communities by South African public organisation Roundabout Outdoor. The Roundabout is the first of its kind in the UK and will be set within Crealy's new World Play Zone.

Roundabout Outdoor has to date installed 670 Roundabout PlayPumps providing clean, free drinking water for up to 2,500 people per Roundabout. Children play on the roundabout, which pumps water from an underground borehole into a sealed storage tank, ready to be drawn when needed. 

Visitors to the Crealy sites in Devon and Cornwall will be able to play on the roundabout to pump drinking water from the ground, which is then piped to a water play system of channels and troughs, designed by Surrey based, Sun Safe Play Ltd.

An animation explains how the PlayPumps work in Africa and about the installation of more of them across the developing world.  

Angela Wright, MBE, Managing Director of Crealy discovered Roundabout Outdoor in 2003 and immediately recognised the fund raising potential of linking the organisation with visitor attractions around the world.

With involvement in both the British Association of Leisure Parks, Piers and Attractions, and the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions, Wright has brought Roundabout PlayPumps to the attention of large theme parks, zoos and attractions worldwide.

A number of major attractions in the UK, USA, Australia and South Africa have already signed up to the project.  

The grand opening for visitors to Crealy Devon will be on 2 April and that for visitors to Crealy Cornwall on 9 April.
