What the petition asks
Keep all the Gyms open if the Government decide to put the country into a third lockdown. It is important people stay active during the winter months even if the country has to going into a third lockdown.
It is important to maintain people’s physical and mental health during the dark winter months. It has been proven that gyms are one of the most hygienic and Covid safe places for the public. Gyms have been fantastic at applying themselves to maintain social distancing and have done everything required to stay safe to the public. Some people can’t access physical activity outside due to lack of space or environmental conditions (ice, snow, cold weather etc).
