Will you make Parkinson’s a priority?

Every year, 2,000 Queenslanders’ lives are changed by hearing the words “You have Parkinson’s” for the first time. Parkinson’s Queensland currently runs Education and Training sessions for people living with Parkinson’s as well as those supporting them. This includes Aged Care providers, Allied Health Professionals, Community Services groups as well as family members. We are looking to expand the types and number of Education and training programs we deliver, including some to support those who are newly diagnosed.

However, we cannot achieve this alone. We need your help to turn these programs into a reality. Donate to support Parkinson’s education today.

Host your own Fundraiser for Parkinson’s 

The possibilities are endless when it comes to making a difference to people living with Parkinson’s. Our Community Fundraising Portal is easy to navigate and allows you to get creative with how you’d like to raise awareness and funds for people affected by Parkinson’s.

You could host a dinner party, organise a workplace fundraiser, or ask for donations instead of presents on your special day. Our Fundraising Portal allows you to create and share your fundraising page and track how many donations you have received.

Register your fundraiser today.

Honour a Loved with a Tribute Page 

Celebrate the life of a loved one with a tribute page, and encourage others to honour their memory with a gift to support people currently living with Parkinson’s.

By sharing stories, photos and reflections on your tribute page, you’ll not only keep their spirit alive, but also offer a meaningful space for friends and family to connect and remember them. 

If you’ve lost a friend, family member or colleague with Parkinson’s and want to pay homage to them, consider collecting donations in lieu of flowers to help others currently living with Parkinson’s, whilst honouring their legacy.

We’ve partnered with SafeMate

SafeMate provides instant access to your essential health details with the scan of your very own personal QR code.

Queensland Ambulance Service paramedics are trained to look for your SafeMate, which you’ll have on an ID code or sticker.

We’ve Partnered with Touchstone LifeCare to help you set up your digital Advanced Care Plan.

An Advance Care Plan with Touchstone LifeCare offers you and your loved ones peace of mind that your end-of-life healthcare choices are clear to your doctors and medical professionals. 

What makes TLC’s Advance Care Plans different from others is that they take you through a guided conversation format with an easy to complete questionnaire. The key benefits is that it is easy to use, you can update it anytime easily and, since it is digitally documented, you can trust the most up-todate version will be automatically shared with your trusted contacts, and instantly retrievable when it matters most. 

Reduce any stress and conflict between your family and loved ones by making your wishes for care known.
