Councillor Martin Osborne, chairman of the council's tourism, equalities, communities and culture committee said: “Exercise has a huge impact on both physical and mental health, so it’s great to see that our popular leisure centres are re-opening once again and welcoming back customers to enjoy exercise in a safe and secure environment.”

Ivan Horsfall Turner, managing director for Freedom Leisure, added: "We look forward to seeing everyone using their local leisure centre again, and the teams can’t wait to get back to providing our local communities with opportunities for exercise, activity and the chance to socialise safely."
