It was really interesting to hear from Parkinson's UK about timely administration of medicines for people living with Parkinson’s. Even a 30 minute delay can have lasting consequences. I watched their short video & learned a lot. parkinsons.org.uk/professionals/…

We’re all deeply saddened by the death of our trustee, David Allan.

He will be missed by everyone at the charity, the Parkinson’s community and his beloved dog, Angus.

Our thoughts are with his husband, Bram, his family and many friends at this time.

This is vital. If the UK is to grow our economy through high-value sectors, R&D etc, we need all of our society to feel welcome in those professions. We need to do better.

Bravo Dayne Beccano!
