People of all ages can benefit from Parkour but the youth of the area would benefit hugely from it.

Parkour is great for burning off energy and meeting socially for kids and young adults. Please install a larger parkour area on the great field!

Parkour is a growing sport that promotes fitness, socialising through exercise, confidence and enjoying the great outdoors through movement for not just young people, but all. It is a very inclusive sport and this would be a great opportunity for Poundbury to lead the way and break down boundaries. Sarah

As someone who's journey into sport only truly started with Parkour some 10 years ago, I give nothing but support for such a cause. The community for Parkour is strong in Dorchester. A lot of work has been done to build this community over many years and this is an excellent opportunity to further support the development of a community and a sport.

Parkour has helped so many people overcome their fears, not just in parkour but that in life itself, and having an safe open area for people and children to develop and grow is fantastic.

There has been a thriving Parkour community in Dorchester for well over 12 years now and there is no sign of slowing down. Indoor classes are booming and we need to provide outdoor areas so the sport can be practised properly and safely.

I really think a parkour installation would be a huge benefit to our community and fun for all ages to get involved in or spectate. As a now recognized sport this would be a cutting edge use of the great field. Already a proved success in Sandringham Poundbury would do well to follow on from this. Thanks.

Parkour is a great activity for encouraging children of all ages and sexes to improve fitness. It's ethos lies in supporting others to improve and reach their own goals. The parkour area at Sandringham has proved very popular and my son really enjoys spending time with his friends there.

Both of my daughters do parkour and it's a wonderful experience for them, physical and exciting. More and better facilities and opportunities for people to get involved in this can only be a good thing given our current screen-based society.
