Our Purpose
Exercise Matters
Exercise makes us happier and healthier. It opens up opportunities and brings communities together. It is essential for our mental and physical wellbeing and has the power to make life with Parkinson’s better for everyone. Thats why Sport Parkinson’s is here.
If we can help everyone to exercise more – by enabling people with Parkinson’s to find and enjoy the activities and sports that choose we can play our part in creating:
- A more integrated and resilient Parkinson’s community, actively involved in shaping the opportunities that they want to exercise in.
- A Parkinson’s society where physical activity is the norm – powered by thriving groups and clubs across the country.
Above all we want to create an environment where every person with Parkinson’s has a chance to reach their full potential.
We can’t do it alone. We can only succeed if we acknowledge that this is not an individual ambition. We are part of a much bigger team and that is why we will work with organisations, locally and nationally, who share our ambitions.
We are here to champion the role of sport and activity within the Parkinson’s community, so that all of us can enjoy the benefits of being active. That means our ambition is for everyone with Parkinson’s and the life-changing difference that we can make together.
We are Sport Parkinson’s.
