Says business interruption insurance claims totalling GBP5 million recently settled with insurers, and on back of this, earnings for financial year ended June 27 will be GBP2 million higher than market expectations.

"This year's key trading period has been boosted by pent-up demand and disposable incomes that built up during lockdown, significant increases in domestic holidays, a temporarily reduced rate of VAT and rates relief by way of government support and the addition of the newly acquired Lightwater Valley theme park," it says.
