We have been thinking about the value of ‘be strong to be useful’ in parkour and how parkour practitioners can give back to the wider community.

In our view, if we are to take ownership of a space, we should be respectful of that space and take care of it as it was our own. We are thinking of initiatives to help parkour communities take responsibility over their spaces, and connect to the other people who might use them.

Edinburgh Parkour’s recent litter pick event was a great example of this and the Parkour Outreach team were all involved as part of this event.
