Mental and Physical HEALTH for society by REOPENING GYMS!

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

We all do appreciate your intentions when it came to put England in Lock down, to keep all society safe, now please, appreciate our intentions to help our society to return to normal everyday routines, with reopening Gyms, where they can exercise, improve and feel natural high when doing that!
People in Parliament, people in their homes, on streets, at work... we all have one thing in common and it is common sense, which in this case has been neglected in my opinion by society's part which decides about everyone's future.
Gym-natural endorphins, improvements,large space, mental and physical growth! Pubs - limited space, alcohol(which definitely not causing people to stay 2m apart) uncontrolled environment, no matter how much owners are trying.

Why it was rejected

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