A Lancashire man, who is living with Parkinson’s, is fronting a new charity film set to take over Piccadilly Lights, to mark World Parkinson’s Day. The film, created by Parkinson’s UK, challenges assumptions about the condition and shows how unpredictable and variable Parkinson’s is.
Each year, World Parkinson’s Day celebrates the global Parkinson’s community and shines a light on the condition. In the UK alone, over 153,000 people are living with a diagnosis and there is currently no cure. Rizwan’s story is one of six personal films made by Parkinson’s UK and released in the lead up to the day.
With over 40 different symptoms, Parkinson’s is often different from one person to the next. And as our six amazing stories show, it’s also different for each person from day to day, hour to hour, minute to minute. “Parkinson’s UK is here for everyone affected by Parkinson’s. Whether it’s offering advice through our helpline, information to help manage life with Parkinson’s, or connecting with people in the same boat, we are here to ensure that no one faces Parkinson’s alone.
