This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about whether to offer services to people under the age of 18 are a matter for individual businesses, not the UK Government or Parliament.

Age discrimination is already illegal unless a business can show an objective justification for this. You can find out more about age discrimination here: www.equalityhumanrights.com/en/advice-and-guidance/age-discrimination
