These sessions are led by Parkinson’s Disease specialists & consist of specific Parkinson’s Disease physiotherapy exercis

es, programs & consultations. Our goal is to help you make exercise a regular part of your life so that you live well, remain active, reduce the risk of falling, become an active participant in the management of your health & most importantly, find value within yourself. If you can’t join in person, you can visit our website to join online exercise programs (12-week courses) & benefit from the video exercise library. You can also buy Parkinson’s Disease support products online to help make day-to-day mobility easier.

Looking for a little help from one of you very talented needlework gals. I have 2 hand towels that were beautifully made and gifted to me, which were crocheted to hang on a hook. They have been very well used and need replacing. I have 3 little hand towels which I would love crocheted in a similar way .... And I haven't a clue how to do it 🫣. Can anyone help??

It was a real privilege to join Joe Kelly MP and Parkinson's Queensland at Brisbane Parliament yesterday. In honour of Parkinson's awareness this month of April, Joe put the spotlight on Parkinson's Disease, bringing a deeper awareness of this very personal, yet prolific disease. Rory and I had an incredible opportunity to highlight the importance of Allied Health intervention in the medical management of Parkinson's Disease, keeping people out of hospitals, independent in their own homes and enjoying a better quality of life. We met many of the ministers who took the time to chat with us about what we do, and why it matters.
We are incredibly grateful to you Joe for raising awareness for people all over QLD, living with Parkinson's and for your tireless efforts to champion this important work.

Caregiving can be the greatest challenge, yet the most rewarding journey you will ever embark on, as long as you take care of yourself too.
We see you and recognise all that you do, so please don't ever feel alone. Sharing your experiences, gaining knowledge and learning to look after yourself in the process is not only important, it is essential. A problem shared is a problem halved." Suzanne.
