This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.
We think your petition is covered by Government or Parliament action already. If you'd like something else, you could start a new petition clearly explaining what it is.
Since you started your petition the Government has lifted the restrictions on parks and gardens from opening: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/further-businesses-and-premises-to-close/further-businesses-and-premises-to-close-guidance
Reopening is a matter for individual operators, so you should check to see if a particular park or garden has been reopened.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
