The needs of young people with Parkinson's and their families are different from those of older people.
Problems can arise, such as family relationships often in connection with children.
Employment issues, often leading to premature retirement, leading to concerns regarding mortgages and other financial matters. Younger people may also want to meet other people in similar situations within their age range to share their experiences and offer each other support. We also hold regional weekends, Carers Forums' and other activities. This will encourage good communication amongst all young people with PD across Europe and will hopefully lead to joint initiatives.
