Younger people's groups

One in 20 of those diagnosed with Parkinson's each year is under the age of 40. There are around 6,000 people of this age living with Parkinson's in the UK, as well as many others under retirement age.

If you can't find a group below for your local area, we have other local groups throughout the UK welcoming people of all ages.

Younger people (ie those under retirement age) often contact us wanting to be put in touch with other younger people with Parkinson's. Local support groups are one way of being able to provide that support.

The groups vary in size and what they do, but they all provide the opportunity to meet other younger people and share information and experiences.

If you can't find a group below for your local area, we have other local groups throughout the UK welcoming people of all ages. View our local group finder to find out what's happening near you.
