Radio 4 Appeal

Parkinson’s UK

Rory Cellan-Jones makes the Radio 4 Appeal on behalf of Parkinson’s UK.

Parkinson’s is a complex brain condition with over 40 symptoms, affecting movement, speech, sleep and mental health. The Parkinson’s UK Nurse Appeal is providing initial funding for new nurse posts across the UK, Parkinson’s training for health professionals, and campaigning to protect invaluable Parkinson’s services.

£40 could pay for one hour of a nurse’s time - the difference between isolation and support, confusion and clarity, fear and hope.
