One of the big impacts in the next few weeks in England is that although schools will remain open, lots of out-of-school sports clubs won't.

Leisure centres and gyms will close, along with other indoor and outdoor leisure facilities.

So Joe says he wants to help us to get a bit more exercise in our lives.

Apart from keeping our bodies healthy, experts say that working promotes positivity and good mental health.

Joe posted this message on his social media:

Culture secretary Oliver Dowden, who is charge of sport in England, said:

"Unfortunately we need to pause grassroots sport outside school to reduce the transmission risk from households mixing," he tweeted.

"As soon as we can resume this, we will".
