Are you affected by Parkinson’s? Why not join our choir?

This month we are announcing the launch of a new social games group. It is run by the Local Area Coordinator, Amy. The first session will take place on the 6 February. Thereafter it will be held on the first and third Tuesday of the month for a couple of hours. It’s a free, friendly group for anyone who would like to meet new people in a relaxed environment. Bring your favourite games to play with others. There’s no need to book, you can just turn up.

The Share the Road campaign focuses on anyone who uses the roads and encourages everyone to treat each other respectfully.

“A new year, a fresh, clean start! It’s like having a big white sheet of paper to draw on! A day full of possibilities! It’s a magical world, Hobbes, ol’ buddy… let’s go exploring!” Bill Watterson, It’s A Magical World: A Calvin and Hobbes Collection

Some of this advice might seem obvious, but there are some simple things we can do to help other people feel safer when they're out in public.
