Parkinson’s Care and Support UK is the only UK charity which focuses on Holistic Health, Wellness, Care, Complementary and Alternative treatments and therapies to improve life with Parkinson’s and to help you live better for longer.
Although we fund non-pharmaceutical research into how we can slow down, reverse or even prevent the onset of Parkinson’s, we are mindful that thousands of people living with the condition need support today. This charity is all about positivity and being proactive about health and wellbeing. People with Parkinson’s do not need pity or sympathy. They need to be understood, given clear and unbiased information, services and care that will enable life to be lived to the fullest.
Parkinson’s is a combination of symptoms and ailments in which no two people have the same experience. This is why there are many ways to treat Parkinson’s. Parkinson’s Care and Support UK does not believe in simply masking symptoms with medications. We believe that in order to live your best life to the fullest, a multifaceted approach is needed and therefore a holistic healthcare plan should be in place for every person with Parkinson’s from diagnosis to end of life.
We are Parkinson's UK. Powered by people. Funded by you. Improving life for everyone affected by Parkinson’s. Together we'll find a cure.
We’re close to major breakthroughs. Funding the right research into the most promising treatments, we get closer to a cure every day. Until then, we're here for everyone affected by Parkinson’s. Fighting for fair treatment and better services. Making everyone see its real impact.
Further information, advice and support is available on our website, www.parkinsons.org.uk.
Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition - it can be successfully treated with a range of therapies but it is currently incurable. In 2018 around 145,000 people in the UK alone are living with Parkinson’s (1 person in every 350). This is expected to increase by 18% by the year 2025 and is set to almost double by 2065. It is estimated that 1 person in 37 will receive a diagnosis of Parkinson’s during their lifetime.
Cure Parkinson's is a leading Parkinson's medical research charity totally committed to slowing, halting and reversing the condition and ultimately improving the lives of those affected by the disease.
