Nicola Brian, Director of Communications
The Brain Donor Appeal, held in April 2009 during
Parkinson's Awareness Week has been a
huge success, exceeding its target of doubling the number of
people on the brain donor
register and raising awareness of Parkinson's.
Nicola Brian, Director of Communications at the Parkinson's
Disease Society said:
"We are absolutely delighted to have won such a highly
influential award.
"It's wonderful that the hard work the Communications team
and Trimedia put in to making this campaign such a success has been
recognised, particularly in a category with so many other great
charities.
"We'll keep our fingers crossed on 20 October for the PR Week
Awards."
