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

The 19th - 25th April, 2010 is Parkinson's Awareness Week.

I'm being interviewed tomorrow by radio station 2BR, to talk about the disease, and the support that's available locally, from Parkinson's UK, the new name for the Parkinson's Disease Society.

It's pre-recorded, so I'm not sure when it will be broadcast, but will post later if I get to know.

So far this is the only local interview we're doing, though I am doing some more with national publications.

Hopefully I'll be able to get a good plug for the Hyndburn and Ribble Valley Support Group, and alert more people that we're here if they need us.

As a new group, with attendance well over 40 at our meetings, we are seen as one of the successful branches, and feel happy we are obviously needed as a support group in this area.

We are genuinely thrilled to be supported by H.B.C., more about that next month.
