Rejected petition Keep gyms open within the second lockdown

Keep gyms open in the "second lockdown" to help the country stay fit and healthy, not only physically but most importantly mentally.
Gyms can be a massive lifeline to many people that attend them and if like many it can be a life or death. Mental health deteriorates if we have no where to vent.

More details

This can lead to more rises in mental health. It may seem a little daft at times but a gym can be a safe place to vent anger, sadness and keep us sane
