Topic context

Understanding parkinson’s disease

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive condition that affects movement and can also affect speech, sleep, mood and thinking. Symptoms change over time, which affects independence and family roles.

Why it helps

How peer support helps with parkinson’s disease

Peer support can help with Parkinson’s because feeling self-conscious about a tremor or a quiet voice leads many people to stay home. In a group, members are patient and the pace is unhurried.
