Rejected petition Work out to help out! Government to pay 50% of gym and wellness classes.
Get the government to pay 50% of Gym memberships, and fitness and wellness classes.
If the government wants those industries to survive and is serious about it's weight loss plan then it should take this opportunity and help two birds lose one stone :)
More details
While we all love the 'Eat out to help out' scheme it doesn't really go hand in hand with the government plan to lose weight and fight obesity.
Mental and physical health should be the government top priority in terms of preparing the country for winter and the possibility of a second wave.
By paying 50% of gym memberships and health and fitness classes the government will not only help people achieve their health goals, it will also support the struggling health and fitness industry.
