Text of Petition:
After the first lockdown
the UK Government spent £500m on the eat out to help out scheme!
This time the focus must
be on health!
With activity levels
falling to an all-time low in this third lockdown & mental health figures
rocketing to an all-time high we need to prioritise health post lockdown!
A workout to help out
scheme would be for anyone looking to attend a gym, swimming pool and leisure
facilities for a day pass, class or an outdoor fitness-related activity. It
could provide 50% off someone’s bill, capped at ten pounds per person.
This would be an
opportunity to prioritise & improve the health of the nation post pandemic
whilst relieving some of the future pressures from the NHS!
