Parkinson disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects a person’s control of their body movements.  The Parkinson disease is degenerating and often life threatening, requiring an immediate stop. This April, the Shake It Up Australia foundation is promoting and raising funds for the Parkinson’s disease.

“It is estimated that approximately four people per 1,000 in Australia have Parkinson’s disease”

To promote awareness on Parkinson disease, Get involved this April by:

  • Holding an event doing something you love – morning tea, golf day, sausage sizzle or morning tea
  • Raising awareness on social media using #pause4parkinsons
  • Making a donation
  • Spreading information on signs and symptoms amongst family members
  • Fundraising
