Rejected petition Review private run leisure facilities (Like Everyone Active)

I would like the government to review private run leisure facilities that were previously run by Council Authorities, and have local council Authorties run these leisure facilities again.

More details

As services have deteriorated and prices have increased under private run leisure providers (Like Everyone Active). When these facilities were under council control they were more efficient and cleaner and memberships were more reasonable and there was a wider range group classes which have now been cut but membershi fees are on the increase.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Decisions on the running of leisure centres are a matter for individual local authorities, not the UK Parliament or Government.

You could start a petition calling on the Government to nationalise all leisure centres, if that is what you want to happen.

In the meantime you may also like to sign this petition: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/332902.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
