“We are now working to the safe reopening of five of our pools, our ice rink and bowling alley.
“With social distancing measures a necessity and to keep our staff and customers safe the reopening of our venues is being done in stages.
“The pools at Adwick Leisure Complex, Armthorpe Leisure Centre, Dearne Valley Leisure Centre, Doncaster Dome and Thorne Leisure Centre will be the first to reopen and we ask that customers planning to visit come ‘swim ready’ to reduce time spent in the changing rooms.

“We’ve put in place a number of measures to make sure that people feel safe and comfortable in visiting our venues.
“We know how much our customers have missed visiting our venues and we’ve missed having them with us. We are really looking forward to welcoming them back and, while we know that things will be different for the next few months, we are hoping that they’ll work with us to ensure that our facilities remain open and that more of our venues can begin to see customers once more.”
All visitors have to pre-book and capacity is reduced. Extra cleaning and hygience measures will be in place.
