A Chorleywood-rooted charity is intent on finding a cure for one of the world’s most well-known conditions: Parkinson’s disease.
Marking its 20th anniversary in 2025, Cure Parkinson’s was founded by the late Tom Isaacs. Sadly, Tom passed away at 49 years old after living with Parkinson’s from the age of 26.
Today, the former CEO and current chairman of the London based charity’s development board, Will Cook, continues to share his passion for finding a cure.
This includes supporting the Parky Charter, which aims to ensure that anyone referred for a possible diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease will be able to visit a consultant within at least 18 weeks, and then once a year after that. It also calls for comprehensive care and support in the search for a cure.
Currently, the charter has more than 109,400 online signatures, meaning it will be considered for debate in Parliament.
In a response to the petition, the government said: “The government is committed to improving health outcomes for people with neurological conditions, including Parkinson’s disease. Funding provision is subject to Spending Review decisions.”
