Welcome to the Bristol and District Branch of Parkinson's UK.

Hello and welcome to the Bristol and District Branch of Parkinson's UK Click on red links for more information.

We are a group who are living with Parkinson's either as those with the condition or friends and family or carers.  We support each other with a variety of Activities and Support groups meetings, and keep members updated on the latest medical developments and research into treatments for the condition.  

We serve people in the greater Bristol area including South Gloucestershire. We are fostering links with neighbouring branches that include NW Somerset, Weston Super Mare and  Bath and North East Somerset.

We hold open Branch meetings on the first Saturday of each month when we have a guest speaker (see monthly meetings) and the affairs are managed by an elected committee of dedicated volunteers (supported by Parkinson's UK staff) who meet on the first Monday of each month. ( See YOUR COMMITTEE)

 Our AGM is on the first Saturday in March at St Monica's Trust and we have an independent president invited from our community.

We aim to offer our local community a varied menu of choices to support them, their carers and families as well as the wider community of people living with Parkinson's by fundraising and collecting donations, passing these onto specified areas within Parkinson's UK.     SEE FUNDRAISING
