Some years ago, on a visit to UK, John and I picked up a document about the Birmingham Institute for Conductive Education. We were told that the Birmingham Institute started work with adults who have Parkinson's Disease in September 1990. Does anyone on the list know how this work is going and whether PWP who have attended have gained lasting benefit from the conductive education? If it has been a success, has anyone tried to start up anything similar outside Europe? I would very much like to know if anyone has info.

Good thing they can't smell Bernhard Matthews turkey houses as they are far from 'bootiful'.. However if Stan can shovel plenty of turkey **** on his roses, he should get a fine bunch for Millie, and lessen the risk to the ozone layer by her over zealous use of Haze Spray! regards from North Norfolk where the breeze is sweeter!
