Donald--here's a start from my resource file--the NPF center in Rngland
would know how to reach the UK resources,I'm sure.
As we often get inquiries about PD resources in other countries
than the USA, I was interested to note that the National PD Assn. supports
affiliated Centers of Excellence in 9 other countries:
China, Argentina, The Netherlands, Japan (2), ENGLAND, France,
Israel (2),
Canada (2), and Spain.
ALSO
UK
In the United Kingdom-- Contact Eileen Atkinson, <[log in to unmask]>
about the Parkinson's Disease Society which is supportive in many ways, and
also YAPP&RS. It stands for "Young Alert Parkinson People & Relatives".
It was started originally for the young-onset Parkinsonians, It's very
good for those
who fall into this category. She will supply information and addresses.
