Volunteer

 

Collecting money for the PDSVolunteers are an important and valued part of the Parkinson’s Disease Society. Together, staff and volunteers help to meet the needs of people with Parkinson’s and their carers; locally and nationally across the UK. This would not be possible without the contribution of our volunteers.

 

PDS is involved in many different activities, from fundraising and campaigning to research. There are several ways for people to get involved:

 

 

Volunteer at a local support group

 

Volunteers, who are generally people with Parkinson’s, their families and carers, run our network of 330 branches and support groups. These groups vary in what they do and the support they provide - to find out more get in touch with a group local to you.

 

 

Media volunteering

 

Do you have a story to share? We are always looking for people with Parkinson's, carers and professionals who are willing to share their story with the media. Read more on our Media volunteers.

 

Perhaps you’re interested in helping to ensure that everybody affected by Parkinson’s knows about the PDS and members of the public understand Parkinson’s. If so, get in touch with our on 020 7963 9370 or email: pr@parkinsons.org.uk

 

 

Cards for good causes

 

 

The Parkinson’s Disease Society is able to continue and expand our work, activities and support for people with Parkinson’s only because of the generosity of thousands of people and organisations who give their time in support of our work. We are profoundly grateful to all of you.
