(UK, 1165177) Browse eventsSpotlight YOPD is the new kid on the block... 200 years since the discovery of Parkinson's Disease, we thought it was time a charity represented those younger people with the condition.We aim to be the 'go to' organisation for ‘Young Parkies’ - providing or enabling access to information and support for those diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson's Disease (YOPD). We want to see action not just raise awareness: • Consistent quality treatment across the board, irrelevant of postcode - where everyone has a plan of care and access to a neurologist and PD nurse, plus any other treatments that may be useful. • We want to encourage better emotional and physical health - eating and exercising well - and advise on any other therapies.• Free prescriptions for those with YOPD. Spotlight YOPD is mostly run by those with PD. Ultimately we want those with Young Onset Parkinson's to be seen as the long-term investment that we should be. With longer to live with the condition, we have more to lose and consequently - by being proactive - far more to gain. Of unknown causes and not necessarily hereditary, anyone and everyone is at risk. Confirmed figures are hard to find, without a UK database, but we speculate that the number is growing among young and old.We aim to give the newly diagnosed the strength and support (by us being here, but not in your face) to come into the light and be counted. People often regret suffering in silence.

(UK, 1187483) Browse eventsThere are 850,000 people in the UK who live with a form of dementia and despite the progress being made in the search for a cure, it is unlikely to come quick enough to help them. For these people, what’s essential is to find the best way of living with their dementia. ‘Our Dementia Choir’ began as part of a documentary created for BBC. The two part series saw acclaimed actress Vicky McClure take us on a deeply personal journey where she sets out to discover the true extent of music’s power in combatting dementia. Vicky knows only too well the cruelness of dementia having helped care for her grandma who died in 2015. But Vicky also saw the amazing effect the music had in calming her down as well as giving glimpses of the old Nana. Vicky formed a choir of people all living with dementia in her home town of Nottingham to see whether music can make measurable difference to their lives. The result: Our Dementia Choir. The choir has had such an immeasurably positive effect that it’s member have remained in regular contact since the show aired. Under the Choir leadership of Angela, the choir has continued to meet and sing but donations are vital to keep this amazing choir running and your generous support is much appreciated.
