Welcome to the
North West Somerset Parkinson's Support Group website

About us:                    

The North West Somerset Support group was set up in 1994 to help those living with Parkinson's and those caring for them in Nailsea, Backwell, Clevedon, Portishead, Yatton and the surrounding areas.  Membership is free to all.

We are part of Parkinson's UK (parkinsons.org.uk), the national Parkinson's support and research charity.

Monthly General Meetings are usually held on the second Saturday of each month from 10.30am to 12.15pm.   These are social gatherings, often with a speaker on a subject of interest or curiosity to be enjoyed by those living with Parkinson's, those who are caring for them, their families and friends.  Tea and coffee and biscuits are served! 

We hold Singalong sessions twice a month to help with loss of voice or with speech problems due to Parkinson's.  

We publish a newsletter with information and news - this is available to all members. Free information leaflets about Parkinson's are available at our Saturday meetings and on request.

For more information about our local group, please call Marie on 01934 742091 or 07800 815262
