Gyms are essential to maintain physical and mental fitness for everyone! Physical fitness, especially for those who’s jobs depend on it, like military and emergency responders is essential, not a luxury! COVID is hard enough on everyone’s wellbeing, with proper measures in place make this happen!

Additional Information

UK government to class gyms as an essential service, because it is! As a serving member of the British military not having a place to maintain physical and mental well-being, makes us less-effective at our jobs, the same goes for civilians.
