The Liverpool mum of three at the head of a North West play centre empire has shed light on her company's £1m expansion plans for a site near the banks of the Mersey.
Cheryl Cosgrove, 49, started her career in banking before opening Fun Town in Garston in 2010. She launched Velocity in Widnes five years later with the help of husband Steven.
Cheryl told the ECHO the Widnes inflatable park is "a huge success" and added: "It really catapulted us into the industry. Within eight months we opened a second site in Wigan then the opportunity came to buy the site in Otterspool."
