They have NO right to charge anyone for using them.

As someone who as well as working in outdoor health and fitness also works in the hospital system (largely in the operations of preventable diseases like Diabetes, CVD, Obesity), you clearly want to drain the funds further from tax payers into the system.

Think prevention, not money grabbing now, to pay for your mistakes later.

Also I ask is the coucil more worried about the health factor of it's residence OR just how much revenue it can make.?

Raising the fees for these instructors would only make it more difficult for myself and others in my position to afford their invaluable services - and, with less demand, there will be less services available.

I'd rather pay higher rates for government funded services, to hopefully see them improved; rather than to run independent providers out of business.

Most people who work 9-5 need to have access to parks for training later in the evening or early in the morning.

Pretty soon we'll have to get a permit to walk the dog in a park?!

It also subtly challenges your balance which deteriorates with old age. Exercising outdoors has many positive other health benefits including reducing blood pressure and stress relief. In a culture that needs TV shows such as The Biggest Loser - placing restrictions on outdoor activities is a step backwards in fighting obesity.
