What the petition asks

All soft play centres are due to close Friday 23rd October due to the apparent strike in cases of covid. There is no trick or treat, no visiting family and friends. Children's worlds have been turnt upside down since January. There mental health states are becoming worse.
The children are the ones suffering more than ever yet the government are failing to help them. There are no rises in cases of covid. Especially in children so why ruin there mental health state. Children deserve to at least have children soft play centres open to give them that bit of normal in there lives.
