The article from MSN discusses how local councils in the UK are increasing gym membership prices, which could negatively impact public health. The price hikes are attributed to budget cuts and rising operational costs.

The article also mentions that some councils are considering alternative solutions like offering discounted rates or free access to certain groups to mitigate the adverse effects on community health.
