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!
