About us

Who we are

We're the Parkinson's research and support charity. Because we're here, no-one has to face Parkinson's alone.

We were founded in 1969 by volunteers. More than 40 years on, volunteers are central to everything we do. We have volunteering opportunities all over the country in our local groups, at our fundraising events, in our research work, our media work and more.

Our culture and values

Our strategy focuses on 4 areas:

Pushing for excellent health and care.
Building your community of support.
Getting you new treatments, faster.
Becoming fit for the future.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

At Parkinson's UK, we want to be here for everyone in the Parkinson's community. That's why we've created an equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) strategy. This strategy includes an overarching goal, 3 ambitions and our equality, diversity and inclusion promise.
