Build More Children Play Equipment and Fitness Equipment in Green Spaces/Parks
The government have closed gyms and soft play and encouraged outdoor exercise but there has been no government facilitation. As a result play parks and the very limited amount of outdoor fitness equipment have became very widely used, counter productive to the entire concept of social distancing.
The government should actively build play parks and fitness equipment on all green spaces e.g. local parks in the cities. Each city council should place and maintain hand sanitisation stations in these areas.
Outdoor fitness equipment should also be provided particularly for teenagers and students in mind. e.g. pull up, parallel and monkey bars. Outdoor bouldering (similar to Cunningar Loop/Fairlop bouldering parks in Glasgow/London) and kayaking should also be facilitated on lochs/lakes.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Local amenities, including play equipment and fitness equipment, are the responsibility of individual local authorities, not the Government or House of Commons.
We could accept a petition calling on the Government to provide additional funding to local authorities, for the purpose of increasing the amount of play equipment and fitness equipment in their localities.
