Council warns of disruption to services due to staff self-isolation alerts

THERE are fresh warnings that council services could face disruptions due to staff self-isolating as Covid infections in Harrogate reach record levels. Some services including swimming pools and tourist information centres have yet to return to normal since lockdown and there are now concerns that they could be hit by more staff being alerted by the NHS Covid-19 app. Councillor Richard Cooper, leader of Harrogate Borough Council, said people should not expect that public services, also including bin collections, will be “immune” to the same disruptions seen in the private sector at retail and hospitality businesses. He told a meeting on Wednesday: “Many of the services that have reopened such as pools, gyms and the whole of the leisure sector employ people who are predominately young – and these people are those who have either had one or jab or no jabs yet.

Knaresborough Pool to reopen next month after more than a year closed

Updated Friday, 4th June 2021, 8:04 pm Harrogate Borough Council has announced Knaresborough Pool will reopen in July, but no exact date has been confirmed. Photo: HBC. Harrogate Borough Council has today announced the pool will welcome back swimmers before the start of the school summer holidays on 26 July, but the authority said it could not yet give an exact date. The pool closed when the first national lockdown came into force in March 2020 and has stayed shut since because of broken filters which the council previously said could only be fixed by Spanish manufacturers unable to travel due to Covid restrictions.

RIPON Spa Baths has reopened today after more than a year of closures caused by the coronavirus outbreak. The baths was forced to close in March 2020 when the first lockdown came into force and has stayed shut until today due to staff supporting frontline council services stretched by the pandemic. All swimming pools, leisure centres and gyms were allowed to reopen last month when other Harrogate council-run sites including the Hydro, Nidderdale Pool and Ripon Leisure Centre made a return. However, Knaresborough Pool and Starbeck Baths are still shut, and it remains unclear when they will reopen. This is because maintenance works at Knaresborough Pool due to be carried out by specialist engineers from Spain have been halted by travel restrictions, the council previously said, although it added it was trying to find a UK-based firm to fix the problem.
