This petition was submitted during the 2015–2017 Conservative government

Petition Give our brave Police Officers free access to local or on site Gyms.

Police Officers are required to pass a fitness test every year and also when they apply to take on different roles such as Public Order Policing or firearms roles. We expect our Police to chase people and climb fences. Most importantly we expect them to CATCH the suspects.

More details

Many Police Station based gyms have been closed and cops starting on £19'000 a year are paying over £60 per month in certain areas to keep themselves at the REQUIRED standard. If there is a required standard then surely they should be helped along. We want Gyms back in Police Stations or subsidised Gym memberships for our dedicated and professional Officers.
