Description
Every hour, two people are diagnosed with Parkinson's. In fact, it's the fastest growing neurological condition in the world.

So we urgently need new treatments, more support for people living with the condition and more funds to find a cure.

In the last 50 years, we've invested more than £100 million in cutting-edge research to uncover the causes of Parkinson's.

We believe we're close to finding a solution. But not close enough. That's why we need more people like you.
