Activities
Our Meetings offer you the chance to share your experiences with others.
We have a good selection of booklets and leaflets dealing with all aspects of living with Parkinson’s.
The meeting is free and we provide tea, coffee and biscuits and hold a small raffle. It is an opportunity to socialise and sometimes we have speakers on various topics. We also arrange outings.
Meetings are every second Wednesday in the month. (In August 2026, meeting days changed from Tuesdays to Wednesdays)
