Open up Private Golf Clubs & courses
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
Open up Private Golf courses as soon as possible.
We’ve seen golf clubs around USA and Europe in certain countries re-open again
That is because of the huge open nature of the game and the ease of which social distancing can be practised.
It’s also good for both physical and mental wellbeing.

Why it was rejected
The UK Government or Parliament was already taking the action it asked for.
