Deiseb a wrthodwyd Don’t close gyms and fitness facilities in tier 4

We know gyms and fitness facilities are vital for people’s mental health in an extremely challenging time.

Winter means it’s more difficult, and potentially unsafe for people to exercise outdoors in quiet dark parks and dangerous streets.

Previous firebreak evidence showed the effect on the R rate of closing Hess facilities would result in a ‘potential reduction’ of 0.1. While other things like places of worship remain open.

We understand the need for action- to get COVID-19 under control, but when people’s mental health is already struggling, and many people are confined to small homes and flats (and have been for months), gyms have adapted to be COVID safe.

The Welsh Government’s own evidence on R rate reduction appears to back that up.

This is obviously a virus that feeds on obesity and poor public health; and in a nation that prides itself on early prevention in health the move to close gyms and fitness facilities in tier 4 is deeply disappointing.

Pam gwrthodwyd y ddeiseb hon?

Mae deiseb yn bodoli eisoes ar y mater hwn. Ni allwn dderbyn deiseb newydd os oes un yn bodoli eisoes ar fater tebyg iawn, neu os yw’r Pwyllgor Deisebau wedi ystyried deiseb debyg yn ystod y flwyddyn ddiwethaf.

Mae'r Pwyllgor Deisebau eisioes yn ystyried deiseb ar y mater hwn: yn ddiweddar: https://deisebau.senedd.cymru/deisebau/244240

Mae’r Pwyllgor wedi trefnu dadl yn y Cyfarfod Llawn ar 13 Ionawr 2021 ar ddeisebau sy’n ymwneud â mynediad at gyfleusterau chwaraeon a gweithgarwch corfforol yn ystod cyfyngiadau symud.

Dim ond deisebau nad ydynt yn bodloni’r safonau ar gyfer deisebau y byddwn yn eu gwrthod

Mae deisebau a wrthodwyd yn cael eu cyhoeddi yn yr iaith y cawsant eu cyflwyno ynddi
