It will hopefully lead to their support when lobbying for continued research, and disability rights.

I received a note from Parkinson's UK head office this morning, and I was genuinley very pleased to read that Graham Jones will hopefully be able to attend this event.

Sadly because of work commitments, or medical appointments no other member of the committee of the Hyndburn & Ribble Valley support group will be able to attend.

Since I can't drive that far, and fear using the train, if it's a bad walking day, I'm struggling to say how I'll get there, but will do everything in my power to be there too.

On behalf of the local group Graham, thank you for indicating you'll try and be there. It is appreciated.
I found out at our meeting today that as well as our M.P., Hyndburn's Mayor, Cllr. Malcolm Pritchard, will also be attending the Neurological Alliance meeting in Lancaster.

On behalf of the group, thank you Malcolm, it is most appreciated.
