Include gyms on the list of essential places to stay open during the lockdown
Keep gyms on the essential list of places to remain open during the Covid 19 pandemic. Gyms are needed for not just physical wellbeing but also mental wellbeing.
During the 2020 national lockdown at the start of the year, leisure centers were shut for nearly 4 months which meant people were unable to look after their physical and mental wellbeing. Leisure centres and gyms are part of a healthy person's routine and are considered essential to a lot of peoples mental wellbeing
