The Cure Parkinson's Trust urge government to invest in a cure
The Cure Parkinson’s Trust (CPT) and the Parkinson’s community urge the government to significantly increase investment into trials and treatments which delay, stop or reverse this crippling progressive condition.
-Living with Parkinson’s (PD) is a life sentence, physically and emotionally.The number of people with PD worldwide is set to double by the year 2030 dramatically increasing costs of care
-There is no standardised, objective, personalised measure of PD and no accurate method of evaluating clinical trials
-With new understanding of PD, it is unacceptable that current treatments only relieve symptoms temporarily, a more permanent and life-changing impact should be possible
-Funding is urgently needed to convert new science into breakthrough treatments
We must act NOW! Please support us. CPT has one bold aim, to find a cure for Parkinson’s. Founded by patients, it is passionate about involving patients in this vision.www.cureparkinsons.org.uk Reg.charity number 1111816
