Petition Action

Keep gyms open for emergency services

Petition Details

The Government must grant dispensation to keep gyms in Police stations, Fire stations (and other emergency roles) open for the sake of public safety.

Additional Information

Police and Fire station gyms are being forced to close due to the national lockdown. In these safety critical roles where fitness is not only important but life saving this is an serious oversight. We have already seen over the past few weeks the worst case scenario first responders can face and this lockdown is poised to tie one hand behind their back.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The national lockdown in England ended on 2 December. Under the new local restrictions tiers, gyms can remain open in all tiers, with some restrictions on indoor group activities in areas in the highest risk tier (tier 3).
