Open up golf courses to members to play golf, it will stop vandalism on courses caused by people out walking, on bikes and motorcycles, also good for peoples mental health and very good exercise. It can be done and abide by social distancing, where you play in 2 people, booking in advance 10 minutes each tee time and all the current rules which we stuck to before lockdown

Why the contribution is important

Mental health, peoples jobs who work at courses, risk of courses not opening back up due to the covid-19. I feel it is very important and its great for exercise and mental health aswell

    Please reopen the Golf Courses. It is an exercise that is fully compliant with Govt guidelines - physical distancing and daily exercise. Why is it Ok for our golf courses to be used by walkers and joggers but golfers are not allowed to use the golf course.

    It would appear easy to ensure social distancing on a golf course so they should be allowed to open.
