'Harry Potter' buses being used as free transport for British health workers

Harry Potter buses which normally ferry fans to a studio tour just outside of London are now being used to take key workers to NHS hospitals.

Paul da Gama, chief people officer at West Herts Hospitals, said: "Our workforce has been depleted due to sickness or self-isolation and so it’s really important that those staff who are well but have transport issues can come back."

A spokesperson for Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden said: "We couldn’t think of a better way to use the buses at this time. We are delighted to play a part in supporting our local NHS in its time of need."

Warner Bros. suspended its Harry Potter Studios tour mid-March, during the first wave of entertainment shutdowns across the U.K. in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, The Variety reported.
