Mission & Goals
Our vision is that people with Parkinson's and their families have access to the highest standards of treatment, support and care they need to live a full and comfortable life. We work and campaign with people with Parkinson’s, their caregivers, families and supporters across Europe to ensure their voices are heard and listened to. We do this by advocating for the Parkinson’s community, raising awareness of Parkinson’s and the needs of the Parkinson’s community, and connecting and collaborating with other global Parkinson’s organisations to provide the most up-to-date information and resources.
