Campaigning news

Here are the latest medication supply issues we are aware of. 

We’re campaigning to stop the UK government’s attack on support for working age people with Parkinson's. Here’s what we’ve been doing and how you can get involved.

On 1 May MPs debated Parkinson's in Westminster and called on the government to take action to improve services and support for people living with the condition.

We packed out the Scottish Parliament to show some of the ways people keep active to live well with Parkinson’s.

We respond to the government announcements by launching our campaign against benefit cuts.

Our local campaigners have been busy meeting their new MPs and campaigning to improve local services for people living with Parkinson’s across England. Here are some highlights from the last 6 months.

Earlier this week we brought together healthcare professionals, charities, people with Parkinson's and senior Scottish government officials for a summit in Edinburgh on time critical medication.

It was a Budget with big announcements on the NHS in England and social security and life sciences across the UK, but we await more details to understand whether it will truly deliver for the Parkinson’s community.

Following years of relentless campaigning by our community and charity, NHS England has committed to ensuring that time critical medication is delivered on time in hospitals as part of an exciting 3-year Medicines Safety Improvement Programme.

Parkinson's UK welcomes the first release of Lewy body dementia diagnosis data.
