Support group meets, walks in Scottburgh
A number of residents attended the Parkinson's Awareness Day.
Residents at Renishaw Hills had a Parkinson’s Awareness Day recently.
More than 70 residents and supporters came together for a morning of education and community spirit.
The event was organised by residents, Helen and Myles Jee, and featured a 600m awareness walk supported by marshals and medical teams, followed by an insightful talk from Dr Karisha Roopnarain, specialist neurologist from Hibiscus Hospital on understanding and managing Parkinson’s Disease.
Guests enjoyed a relaxed social gathering with refreshments, all in support of the Parkinson’s community and ongoing awareness efforts.
The Renishaw Hills Parkinson’s Support Group, started by Helen and Myles, empowers residents and the broader community by creating a safe, welcoming space for those living with Parkinson’s, as well as friends, family and caregivers.
Through monthly meet-ups, members share experiences and offer support, creating lasting connections.
