Our aim is to provide support for People with Parkinson’s, their family and carers in the Bailiwick of Guernsey.

What do we do?

We run regular activities for People with Parkinson’s along with their family members and carers.  We have a very popular weekly exercise class on Thursday mornings and weekly Coffee Mornings on Monday mornings.  We have an annual afternoon tea or summer meal, Christmas party and Christmas Lunch. We often hold ‘adhoc’ fundraising and awareness events too.

We can provide support in the form of sourcing information, booklets and leaflets and can signpost to other helpful agencies.  We can also, in some cases, assist with social security questions or accompany people to meetings with Social Security.  We have also held courses for our carers which allows them to come together to chat, swap notes and also learn further coping strategies.
