About this cause

We provide a Support Group for people with Parkinson's and their carers who live in the Usk and Monmouth areas. We meet monthly and our meetings are based around therapies and help available for people diagnosed with Parkinson's. We welcome newly diagnosed members who can be quite devastated to learn of their diagnosis. We provide an exercise and Dance class monthly which helps with mobility, strength and co-ordination and also with mental well-being. We also provide a weekly Nordic Walking group which several of our members attend and find it help greatly.

How this cause brings people in the community together

Our project will help people diagnosed with Parkinson's remain active and independent and therefore be active members of the community for as long as possible.
