Volunteer your time
Our
work to find a cure and improve life for everyone affected by
Parkinson's would not be possible
without our volunteers.
There are many ways to get involved.
Take a look at the opportunities below, or email us at volunteering@parkinsons.org.uk to
find out about other opportunities local to you.
Meet some of our volunteers and
supporters and find out why they decided to volunteer their
time.
Volunteer with a local group
Volunteering for me is not only a way of saying thank you, it also gives me an immense sense of purpose.
Volunteering with one of our local
groups is a good way to meet new people and get involved with
the local community.
Our groups are run locally and offer information, social
activities and practical help. They fundraise for local and
national activities and also raise awareness of Parkinson's.
Contact our Volunteering team on volunteering@parkinsons.org.uk to
find out about local group volunteering opportunities near you.
Volunteer at a fundraising event
Why not volunteer to cheer people on at one our events? Take a
look at the wide range of fundraising
events that we organise.
Join our Policy Panel
I feel that I'm part of something really special and that what is achieved really does make a difference to people with Parkinson's.
Are you interested in joining our Policy
Panel to help us to form our official opinions on major public
policy issues?
The experiences and views of people affected by Parkinson's is
central to our policy work. You don't have to be an expert.
Share your story with the media
Do you have a story to share?
If you have Parkinson's or you're a carer or health or social
care professional, we are always looking for people like you who
are willing to share your story with the
media.
Get involved in research
Without your support our research towards a cure for Parkinson's
could not happen. There's a variety of ways in which you can
get involved in our research.
Review our publications
Raising funds for research gives me hope that a cure will be found.
Sign up to one of our information review
groups and help us create and review our publications.
We have 2 groups:
- One for people with Parkinson's, relatives and
friends
- Another for health and social care professionals who work with
people with Parkinson's
Help sell our Christmas cards
We need volunteers each year in the run up to Christmas to work
in local Cards for Good Causes shops
where our charity cards are sold.
