Allow UK golf courses to open during COVID-19 outbreak

Petition Details

To maintain a healthy lifestyle, exercise is essential. While many parks are crowded with people running and walking, golf courses remain empty. Permitting people to play golf during the COVID-19 crisis would allow people to exercise in a socially distanced manner if they play alone or with family.
