Please join us. My experience as a PD Advocate and a PPI in different aspects of research has been enhanced by my experiences at the MRC PPU in Dundee. Together they have produced a tool for those diagnosed which is unparalleled and I will talk about it

We're proud to have joined forces with @moversand6, @CureParkinsonsT and @SpotlightYOPD on #WorldParkinsonsDay to hand in the Parky Charter petition to Downing Street.
The petition achieved 20464 signatures, all asking for more support for people with Parkinson's.

The Movers & Shakers are visiting Downing Street today to discuss their Parky Charter! Their important charter calls on the government to help improve the lives of people affected by Parkinson’s. Find out more here: buff.ly/4c8Ikvs

Parkinson’s. There isn’t one journey. There isn’t one ‘day in the life’.
This #WorldParkinsonsDay, we’re shining a light on the daily lives of people with Parkinson’s and their loved ones. The good. The bad. The funny. The sad. The ons. The offs. And everything in between.
💙
Loved sharing our co-produced @mrcppu #Exchanges project at @UoDLifeSciences Research Symposium & hearing that it’s inspiring other researchers to consider #publicengagement #patientinvolvement, brilliant!
