Find local groups, support and social activities
There is lots of in-person and online support to help you live well with Parkinson’s. Search to find your nearest local group, emotional and practical support, health and wellbeing services or social activities.
Our Parkinson’s UK local groups are a great place to find friendship and support from other people living with Parkinson’s, including loved ones and carers. From pub lunches to research talks, there’s something for everyone. There are groups for younger people too!
Our specialist adviser team can provide information about any aspect of living with Parkinson’s, from financial support to medical issues. And we’ve hired extra staff so that we’re here for as many people as possible during the cost of living crisis.
Whether you’re newly diagnosed, have been living with Parkinson's for a while, or are a carer, loved one or friend of someone with the condition. Our forum is an active space to share and chat with others who really understand, at a time that suits you.
We’ve brought together a range of real life stories and tips from people living with Parkinson’s and healthcare professionals in our magazine. Explore a range of topics from managing the cost of living crisis to being active with Parkinson’s.
