My gym has been charging full membership in lockdown

sorry wasn't sure where to post this, my gym which is a local nonprofit organisation has been charging me full membership fees during lockdown i want to ask them about it but am very nervous about it, I am curious to know where the law stands on this as I know lots of other gyms in my city have suspended their membership, my gym has been providing  a park workout and have lent me a rebounder but surely this doesn't justify £29. Also just to add the gym wont be opening as allowed as they are moving premises and don't envisage opening until end of August. 
Anybodys thoughts would be very grateful

    Lockdown has been going on for about 4 months - how have you only just noticed the fee being charged?

    They might argue that by loaning you a rebounder and offering alternative park workouts they're still offering a service to you.
