This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government
Petition Provide funding for school children to access leisure centres or gyms
Leisure centre memberships are expensive and many families cannot afford them. This is why I think pupils from primary to end of secondary schools should be provided with them. First to motivate more children to get into sports and to get fitter and to resolve Britain’s immense problem with obesity.
More details
Did you know that in England the prevalence of overweight and obesity is above 70% among all age groups from 45 upwards.
