From Saturday July 4, pubs, restaurants and pubs will be able to reopen, providing they adhere to COVID- secure guidelines.
This is 'big news' for the hospitality sector and with only 10 days to go, establishments all over the district are now in full swing preparing to welcome guests back in a safe way.
Ashleigh Lambert who owns Six Poor Folk in Knaresborough told the Stray Ferret that they 'cannot wait to re-open.'
"We are looking at practical ways... so collection from stations, increased cleaning, perspex screens where needed, but doing it in a way where it doesnt put people off coming in. We will have mirrors on the stairs so you can see when someone is coming, a one in one out of the toilets. Our staff can wear PPE if they want to, but we have other things in place so this isn't essential. It's about being secure but also realistic."
