Advocacy

Our advocacy work focuses on driving positive change

At Parkinson’s Ireland, we stand up for the rights, voices, and needs of everyone living with Parkinson’s. Our advocacy work focuses on driving positive change — from improving access to healthcare and support services, to raising awareness and influencing policy at national and local levels. Together, we work to ensure that people with Parkinson’s, their families, and carers are heard, respected, and supported to live life to the fullest.
