Staff sickness dries up flume
THE flume at Leith Waterworld has emerged as the most likely leisure facility in Edinburgh to be closed due to staff illness or absence.
A request made under the freedom of information act revealed the flume has shut down ten times since 2004, for up to eight hours at a time. It closed for seven hours on March 9 this year, while Glenogle Swim Centre also shut for an hour in January.
Last year, the Leith Waterworld flume closed three times, the pool shut for eight hours in February and the Leith Victoria Swim Centre gym closed for four hours.
