The PIPA scheme is designed to help you meet your obligations under Health and Safety legislation. The Health and Safety At Work etc Act 1974 and subsequent regulations require all inflatable play equipment that is "designed to be used by members of the public for entertainment purposes either as a slide or for bouncing upon" to be tested at suitable intervals by a competent person.
Bouncy castles, and inflatable slides and obstacle courses are covered by the scheme, but bungee runs and rodeo bulls are not.
Other types of device not covered by PIPA include:
Operators, manufacturers and designers of other inflatable play devices may be subject to the requirements and prohibitions placed upon them by the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974
