National Campaigns Network
I joined the National Campaigns Network as I believe every voice should be heard.
Join our National Campaigns Network to get regular updates about
the national campaigning work of the Parkinson's Disease Society
and find out how you can get involved.
Together we can fight for a fairer deal for people affected
by Parkinson's.
What campaigns can I get involved in?
Campaign topics will include:
Services for people with Parkinson's should be the same across the
UK. Campaign to make sure that everyone gets the same access to
services.
With a UK General Election due to be held before May 2010, let
us know how you would like the political parties to address issues
of concern to you.
Prescriptions should be free for all people in England with long
term conditions. Campaign with us to make sure this happens.
 Welfare
reform
Benefits are changing. Campaign with us to make sure that people
with Parkinson's don't get short changed from changes to
benefits.
What will I have to do?
When you join the National Campaigns Network, we will contact
you when we run a campaign, telling you what you can do.
This could include:
- Contacting the Government, your Member of Parliament, your
Member of the Scottish Parliament, your Member of the Welsh
Assembly or your Member of the Northern Ireland Assembly
- Using your experiences to make sure the things that matter to
you are what the politicians are thinking about too
- Joining forces with others to bring about change
