My Story…
i was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2010 when living in Alberta. Due to this, we sold our farm that was located north of Cochrane and moved to Victoria. When I heard that Jillian Carson was looking for volunteers to start an organized exercise group for persons with Parkinson's, I got involved. The forerunner of PWP, Parkingo Society was born. A very generous donor provided enough funds to enable PWP to construct a well equipped gym. As PWP does not get any major assistance from government, it relies on the generosity of donors. PWP now provides not only exercise classes, but provides one on one counselling, support groups and educational seminars. All of these services are critical for the quality of life for us with Parkinson's and our associated families
