As a leading organisation for Parkinson’s, providing research, education and support, we are constantly working to realise possibilities for people living with Parkinson’s. Over the last 40 years, we have greatly improved quality of life for people living with Parkinson’s, including Young Onset Parkinson’s, and Atypical Parkinson’s (PSP, MSA and CBS).
At Fight Parkinson’s, (formerly known as Parkinson’s Victoria) our community is at the forefront of all we do. We believe that with strong sector coordination and leadership, and greater community and government support, we can realise better outcomes.
Our multidisciplinary team provides specialist advice and support to people living with Parkinson’s, their families, carers, and healthcare professionals through:
- tailored health education programmes and seminars
- a free and confidential health information service
- comprehensive web-based information
- an extensive peer support group network.
We are committed to raising funds to advance research that will deliver effective therapies, treatments, and a cure and to empower our community to live full and active lives until a cure is found.
Living with Parkinson’s as it progresses is a fight. Through our work, we fight to realise possibilities for people living with Parkinson’s. The foundation of Fight Parkinson’s lies in our collective choice to never give up.
Fight Parkinson’s is the operating name of Parkinson’s Victoria, a registered charity in Victoria, Australia (FR0014017).
