What is Self-Management?
“A Path through Parkinson's” is a course designed and run by Parkinson's UK to help you navigate your life with Parkinson's.
The course brings together up to 12 people with a trained leader who is, like them, a person with Parkinson's, partner or carer. They meet for six sessions of discussion about living with Parkinson's. It's free to attend, but you need to book your place in advance.
The aim is to share experiences and discuss the practical and emotional impact of Parkinson’s.
The course lasts for a set period of time and sessions are based on a workbook and led by the “facilitator”. In this way it differs from the really valuable, more informal, support provided by Parkinson’s UK branches and local support groups.
“I feel as though I'm more in control, I can see a future” – Pat, whose husband has Parkinson's.
