    This presentation is UK focussed. Will this occur in Australia as well?

    I gather that Australians can’t participate in the trial for Ambroxol? thanks Penny

    Thank you, very informative. I would very much be interested in more clinical trials and research on nutraceuticals. Hopefully there will be interested partners to pick it up.

    You mentioned that you have PD advocates who work with the main committee. What is their remit?

Tracker

Tracker

The tracker is designed to help you track the amount of time you spend in scheduled exercise each day. Scheduled exercise is activity you have prioritised in your day for health and to help slow your Parkinson’s down. This might include PD Warrior exercise, fast walking, golfing, going to the gym etc. It does not include incidental activity such as housework & gardening (although we hope this increases too). The aim of the tracker is to help you build an exercise habit and to keep you accountable, so try and enter something each day.
At the end of the 10 Week Challenge you can download and review your overall performance.
