Accrington Web - View Single Post - Parkinson's Disease Society new local group

garinda · 27-01-2009, 11:43

The only two branches of the Parkinson's Disease Society in this part of the world, are in Bolton and Burnley, both of which meet in the evenings.

By having a daytime group based in Accrington, which is fairly easily accessible from most parts of Hyndburn and the Ribble Valley, hopefully we'll be able to fulfil a need for people who need a point of contact or support in this area. Judging by the numbers who've attended so far, with very little publicity, there is obviously a need for a local group.

The committee meet next Tuesday, and I'll post the date of the next meeting as soon as it's set.
