Meet Paige Green – Leading Better Bounce into the Future - Officially appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in late 2026
For more than 40 years, Better Bounce has been one of the UK's most respected names in commercial inflatable manufacturing. From humble beginnings to becoming one of Britain's leading manufacturers of commercial bouncy castles, inflatable slides, obstacle courses, interactive games and bespoke inflatable products, the company has always been built on one simple principle – never compromise on quality.
Today, Better Bounce proudly manufactures and supplies commercial inflatables throughout the United Kingdom and exports products worldwide, with over 1,500 inflatables held in stock ready for immediate dispatch. However, behind every successful business are the people whose dedication, passion and vision have shaped its journey.
As Better Bounce enters an exciting new chapter, we are proud to introduce the woman leading the company into the future – Paige Green.
The Story Begins
Better Bounce was founded over 40 years ago by Martin Holmes, whose passion for designing and manufacturing quality commercial inflatables helped establish one of the UK's earliest and most recognised inflatable brands.
As the years passed, like many businesses, Better Bounce faced its own challenges and bacame a shadow of its former self, with just 2 part time staff members remaining and the founder looking to retire.
Around 15 years ago, A locan bouncy catsle hirer and young entrepreneur Lee Scott acquired the failing assets of Better Bounce with one clear objective: rebuild the business to support his hire company and then into one of the most respected inflatable manufacturers in Europe.
It wasn't an overnight success.
Through years of investment, innovation and an unwavering commitment to quality, Lee transformed Better Bounce into a thriving manufacturing business. New product ranges were introduced, manufacturing processes continually improved and the company developed a reputation for outstanding customer service, competitive pricing and reliable commercial-grade products.
Over the following years, Better Bounce supplied well over 10,000 inflatables to customers throughout the UK and across every continent, becoming a trusted name for hire companies, leisure operators, schools, councils, holiday parks, family entertainment centres and event businesses.
The People Behind the Success
No successful company is built by one person alone.
From the earliest days following the acquisition, Samantha Smith became one of the key people helping shape Better Bounce into what it is today. Now serving as Technical Director, Samantha has spent many years overseeing product quality, technical compliance and manufacturing standards, helping ensure every inflatable leaving the factory reflects the quality Better Bounce has become known for.
Working alongside Samantha was another rising star within the business.
Her name was Paige Green.
Nearly Twelve Years of Dedication
Paige joined Better Bounce almost 12 years ago and quickly became one of the company's most valued team members.
During that time she learned every part of the business.
From speaking with customers and helping design bespoke inflatables to supporting production, improving internal systems and working alongside every department, Paige developed an exceptional understanding of what customers genuinely need from a commercial inflatable manufacturer.
Her knowledge wasn't learnt in a classroom. It was earned through years of experience.
Customers came to know her for her honesty, professionalism and willingness to go above and beyond to help.
Colleagues came to know her as someone who would never ask anybody else to do something she wouldn't do herself.
Those qualities naturally made her the ideal person to lead Better Bounce into its next chapter.
A New Era Begins
In November 2025, Paige took over the day-to-day running of Better Bounce.
Almost immediately, customers, suppliers and staff began seeing positive changes.
Her focus has always been simple:
- Invest in better manufacturing.
- Introduce exciting new products.
- Hold more stock.
- Improve customer service.
- Offer exceptional value.
- Continue raising manufacturing standards.
Following months of successful leadership, Paige is set to be officially appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in late 2026
Investing in the Future
Paige isn't interested in maintaining the status quo. She wants Better Bounce to become even better.
Under her leadership, the company continues investing in modern manufacturing machinery, improved production techniques and exciting new commercial inflatable designs.
Customers can also expect larger stock levels, faster turnaround times and some of the most competitive factory-direct pricing in the industry.
Whether purchasing a single commercial bouncy castle or investing in an entire fleet of inflatables, Paige believes every customer deserves honest advice, exceptional service and products built to last.
Family Values at the Heart of Better Bounce
One of the reasons Paige relates so well to customers is because she understands the importance of balancing work with family life.
She is married to Josh Green, Better Bounce's highly respected Head Machinist, who has himself been part of the Better Bounce family for many years, joining the business before the company was rebuilt following its acquisition.
Together they are raising five wonderful children, including energetic four-year-old twin girls.
Balancing a busy family life while leading a manufacturing company is no easy task, yet Paige approaches both with the same energy, determination and positivity every single day.
Anyone who works with her will tell you exactly the same thing.
She is one of the hardest-working people you could ever hope to meet.
Looking to the Future
Every chapter in Better Bounce's history has been shaped by remarkable people.
Martin Holmes founded a company that would become one of the UK's best-known inflatable manufacturers.
Lee Scott rebuilt that company when others believed its best days had passed.
Samantha Smith helped develop the technical excellence and manufacturing quality that customers trust today.
Now, Paige Green is building upon those foundations with fresh ideas, modern investment and an unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction.
Meanwhile, Lee Scott has stepped away from the day-to-day operation of the business and now serves as Non-Executive Director, offering strategic guidance while allowing the next generation to take Better Bounce even further.

A commitment to building outstanding inflatables, supporting customers and continually investing in the future.
As Paige Green leads Better Bounce into its next chapter, supported by Samantha Smith, Josh Green and an exceptional team, the future has never looked brighter.
We would also like to recognise Martin Holmes, whose vision created Better Bounce more than four decades ago, and Lee Scott, whose belief, investment and determination transformed the business into the thriving manufacturer it is today. Without their contributions, the Better Bounce that customers know and trust simply wouldn't exist.
Here's to the next forty years.
