A spokesman for Boston Borough Council said the safety of staff and customers is its main priority, and it was carefully following Government guidelines and putting in place a number of procedures to ensure the complex is as safe as possible for everyone.

“Extensive measures will be taken to maximise safety such as; taking temperatures on arrival, social distancing throughout all of the facility, sanitiser stations put in place around the facility, cleaning of equipment in between use, strict cleaning regimes, and the closure of showers,” they said.
