Description of initiative
Step up for Parkinson’s takes a research-and-evidence-based interdisciplinary approach to caring, the initiative provides free specialised movement classes in the community to people with Parkinson's Disease (PD) and their caregiver – challenging the myths and stereotypes associated with PD and PD sufferers, while raising awareness about the disease in Malta. The organizers are offering these classes free of charge, to raise more awareness about Parkinson’s disease and the role of the care givers and finally to continuously improve the methods through extended research and development. Their vision is to help people with Parkinson’s disease, Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and their caregiver in Malta through movement classes, to reach more people globally living with Parkinson’s disease and improve their quality of life through the online and community courses.
