We’re Parkinson’s UK, the charity that’s here to support every Parkinson’s journey. Every step of the way.
We’re here for you with free information and support.
From the moment you or someone you care about is diagnosed, or whenever you’re ready, you can:
1. Call our confidential helpline on 0808 800 0303 to speak to one of our friendly expert advisers, including specialist Parkinson’s nurses, care advisers, and benefits and employment advisers
We’ve got information and advice on all aspects of living with Parkinson’s. Symptoms, medication, work, money issues, local activities and services, relationships and family life, emotional support: whatever it is, we can help. And we can signpost you to other support too.
2. Speak to your Parkinson’s local adviser
Our team of over 80 local advisers can give you more in depth and personal support wherever you live in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. We can advise on everything from Blue Badges to benefits advice to accessing local services.
3. Get help managing your diagnosis
Our information packs, webinars, courses and support groups can help you and your loved ones understand your Parkinson’s diagnosis and better manage your symptoms.
4. Read our up to date, reliable health information
Our website, booklets and magazines can help you better understand Parkinson’s. They’re full of tips and advice on managing your condition and supporting a loved one.
5. Find ways to get active, stay active and live well with Parkinson’s
Whatever your fitness level, we’ll help you find the right activities for you, from Parkinson’s dance classes to videos of exercises you can do sitting down at home.
6. Connect with other people with Parkinson’s, families, friends and carers
Across the UK, in your local area or online. We’ll help you meet others who understand what you’re going through, because they’re going through it too.
