Branch Get-Togethers

Branch Get-Togethers are back, live and in person!

The Branch gets together every month from September to April for a sociable event usually with a key speaker.

Our next meeting is on 12th October 2022 at 2pm at Liberton Kirk Hall, Kirkgate EH16 6RY

Topic:  What are the best kinds of support that Edinburgh Branch and Members could offer newly diagnosed people with Parkinson’s??

The Branch broke new ground in June 2022, being the first Parkinson’s Local Group to deliver a First Steps Programme, giving special support for the newly diagnosed, delivered by PwPs for PwPs. It took us a year, working closely with Parkinson’s UK staff, to achieve this.

As the Committee contemplates what can follow it, we are asking for the extra benefit of your personal experience and wisdom.

Please come to this Get-Together for a fun-filled – seriously intended – event, to gather and share our stories, mistakes, triumphs, ideas and advice about learning to live with Parkinson’s. We’ll work in groups with post-its and wall charts, to achieve an appreciative display that will enrich our future thinking!

(All in the presence of Edna’s tray bakes..)

We are likely to switch between Liberton Kirk Hall and our other new venue at Inverleith St Serf’s Hall, 1A Clark Rd, Edinburgh EH5 3BD. This seems an ideal way to make our meetings more accessible to more people.
