Coronavirus: Melton swimming pool and sports village remain open
Many public venues have been closed as the government tells people to socially distance themselves from others to limit the spread of the coronavirus.
But Waterfield operators, Everyone Active, say the Dalby Road baths continue to be open, along with the facilities at Melton Sports Village, which they also run for Melton Borough Council.

Hide AdA statement from the company reads: “Our fitness gyms and studios are regularly cleaned, and we ask that customers utilise the anti-bacterial cleaning sprays and paper towels provided in gym areas to wipe down your station before and after use.
“As per advice from the Pool Water Treatment Advisory GroupP, it is also safe to go swimming at this time, as the water and the chlorine within the swimming pools will kill the virus.
“To reduce the risk of infection we would ask customers to observe good hygiene practice by showering before using the pool, and to follow the necessary hygiene precautions when visiting public places.”
