Theresa Hodgkinson, director of place and communities at Ashfield District Council, said: “We know how many people value sports and fitness as an important part of their lives, so it will be great to see our leisure centres open their doors again.
“However, we understand that Covid-19 has not disappeared and we must therefore be vigilant and follow the rules in place.
“We have been working closely with our leisure contractors Everyone Active to get the centres ready to reopen and strict measures are in place to ensure their cleanliness and safety.”
