Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving Page.
Parkinson’s is the fastest growing neurological disease in the world. It is a degenerative disease and at present there is no cure.
The New Forest Branch aims to reach all those with Parkinson’s living in the New Forest Area to offer them the chance to become members of our Group
We welcome them, their family, friends & Carers, to all our activities and we are there to offer support, help and friendship to them on their Parkinson’s journey.
Our activities include:
Monthly Meetings on the third Thursday of each month at the Boldre Memorial Hall in Pilley.
Annual events like our August Garden Party, Summer trips on Solent Dolphin’s Alison McGregor boat and an October Concert
Two exercise classes a week – so important as exercise is known to help slow down the progress of Parkinson’s.
Monthly Coffee Mornings and Afternoon Teas
Monthly ‘Parkinson’s Friendly’ Cinema Showings followed by a delicious buffet lunch in the Malt Centre in the Lymington Centre
All our activities are designed to keep our members active and offer them the opportunity to meet, share experiences and support each other.
The Brach is run solely by volunteers and we do not charge any membership fees - we rely entirely on our own fundraising events and voluntary donations.
