Four-year-old Hunter had a trampoline and swing set built for him at his home in Sturry, Kent, because he struggles playing in public.
Hunter, 4, enjoys playing on his trampoline but Canterbury City Council refuse to let him keep it A local council is facing criticism after ordering the parents of a four-year-old autistic boy to take down his trampoline and swing set. Four-year-old Hunter had the set built for him at his home in Sturry, Kent, because he struggles playing in public spaces. But Canterbury City Council has said it is a health and safety hazard despite there being no complaints from neighbours.
Hunter has been playing on the trampoline and swings for two months and asks ‘every day’ if he can go out. A letter sent to her sent by the council following a routine inspection gave her 48 hours to remove the equipment. The council has not cleaned this rubbish and it is attracting rats Owen accused the authority of hypocrisy, saying neighbouring flats have ornaments such as bird baths despite tenancy agreements stating no items can be erected in the garden.
