Keighley Parkinson`s Support Group Helper

Parkinson's UK local groups offer friendship, support, and numerous activities for people affected by Parkinson's.

In Keighley, the group is a core part of the local Parkinson's community. Joining as helper means you will be too - meeting new people and building new relationships.

We would love to hear from people who might be able to help with organising speakers and outings for the group, and generally being able to muck in! We do all of our own fundraising, and all the money we raise goes towards supporting the community of people living with Parkinson's in the Keighley area.

Our meetings take place on the first three Mondays of the month, at Keighley Healthy Living. There are two seated exercise classes each month, and one meeting where we might invite a speaker. If you think you might be able to support our community, we would love to hear from you. Our staff and existing volunteers will be there to support you every step of the way.

Skills

Collaborative & team focused, as you will need to gather and distribute information to everyone involved.

A positive outlook to make things happen in our local community, and build relationships with our members.

Be willing to undertake some online training and induction.
