What the petition asks
To allow indoor fitness facilities and gyms to remain open in all tiers, including tier 4. Monitor facility capacity and ensure covid safety measures are in place.
Figures suggest very low infection rates for covid within fitness facilities due to the constant cleaning of equipment after each user. Equipment is socially distant and majority of individuals train alone and stick to government guidelines. Fitness is extremely beneficial for those suffering with mental health issues, many relying on fitness facilities to keep themselves mentally stable. Closing indoor gyms once again will have a substantial negative effect on mental health sufferers.
