information SERVICE DETAILS

We’re a friendly, active group for people of working age who have Parkinson’s and otherwise known as the Edinburgh Young Parkinson’s Support Group, EYPSG. We understand what it’s like to be diagnosed with and to live with early onset Parkinson’s. Anyone of working age wherever they live is welcome as well as their partner, friends or family members.

We get together on the first Thursday of each month from 6:30pm. Meetings are in an informal, private function room reserved for our use by The Steading, 118-120 Biggar Road Edinburgh, EH10 7DU. Please note that there is a flight of stairs up to the room in the conservatory and no lift.

We normally have a drink from the bar and some of us also have a bite to eat. It’s a chance to have a chat with fellow “Young Parkies” about ups and downs we may have in common. We have occasional guest speakers, outings and access to all Edinburgh Branch activities. It’s also an opportunity to learn about medical and lifestyle issues.

We run a closed Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/eypsg.

If you would like to know more please contact Scott Wilson on 07835 820 898 or email scottwils180@gmail.com. Or just turn up on the evening.
