CONTENTS PARKINSON’S DISEASE IN BRIEF A chronic, progressive, incurable, complex, disabling neurological condition which currently has no known cure. The four key symptoms are tremor, rigidity, akinesia/ bradykinesia and postural instability, with many secondary symptoms. Over 80,000 Australians have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. 10% of those diagnosed will be under the age of 40. Parkinson’s disease is more prevalent than prostate, ovarian cervical cancer or leukaemia. 1 in 5 people with Parkinson’s disease are of working age (15 – 64). Prevalence is increasing at around 2 – 3% per year.

Economic Dependence

The association is dependent on donations and grants for the majority of its revenue to operate its activities. At the date of this report, the executive have no reason to believe the donations and grants will not continue to support the association. (n)

OUR MISSION To enhance the quality of life to all people living with Parkinson’s disease.

Parkinson’s is a chronic, progressive, neurological disorder. It shows no respect for age or gender with every person living with Parkinson’s having a different experience. Parkinson’s has no predicatable outcome, no known cure and no sure way of knowing what the future will hold. For many it means loss of freedom and a body no longer in their control. For everyone it means a major life change and the knowledge there is no going back. Rudy is one of the 80,000 Australians diagnosed with Parkinson’s. He faces life with grit and determination. For Rudy there is no giving up while there are still more roads to travel. And although some days he feels he is held together with aviation strength tape (just like parts of his bike), this is just part of his wild ride. It is people like Rudy and his journey that inspires Parkinson’s NSW to continue to strive to help all people living with Parkinson’s.
