How this cause brings people in the community together
Parkinson’s has many symptoms, both motor and non-motor including muscle stiffness, depression and anxiety. Research shows exercising regularly can help manage these symptoms and improve mobility. By providing our members with the opportunity to regularly join with others and exercise, not only does this help with their symptoms but it also provides social motivation and aids mental wellbeing.
