2011 elections in Wales
In May 2011 elections were held for the National Assembly for
Wales. The Welsh Government has now been formed and
information is on their website www.wales.gov.uk
Health and social care is devolved in Wales. This means
that it's Assembly Members, and in particular the Welsh
Government, who make decisions on health and social care.
What we're asking for - our manifesto
Our Wales manifesto 2011 says what
we want the new Welsh Government to do for people affected by
Parkinson's.
Get involved - people affected by Parkinson's
Ask your Assembly Member to support the pledges in the
Parkinson's UK Wales manifesto
The National Assembly for Wales
website provides details on who the newly elected Assembly
Members are.
Invite your Assembly Member to your local group meeting
If you're
involved with your local Parkinson's UK branch or support group invite your Assembly
Member to your meeting to discuss how they will represent you.
What your Assembly Member needs to know:
- You live in their constituency/region.
- Your branch or support group meets in their constituency/region
and how many people attend meetings.
- If you're happy to have a photo taken
- If you will be publicising the meeting in the media
- Any examples of good or bad care
Tell your story
If you include your personal story or experience in any contact
with your Assembly Member they are more likely to respond.
Spread the word
We need as much support as possible. Tell friends and family
about our manifesto and ask them to get involved.
