Let's Talk Steps and Fundraising for Parkinson's

Alright folks, we've got a game-changer up our sleeves, and it's called Step Up for Parkinson's. This bad boy empowers you to raise funds for a damn good cause: those battling Parkinson's NSW. Simple concept: get moving and support people living with Parkinson's in your authentic way.

Ready to make some waves and shake things up? Here's how to Step Up:

  • Lace up your sneakers and challenge yourself to a daily walk goal, let's say 1k a day throughout May.
  • Set yourself a physio goal that'll test your limits and support the cause.
  • Grab a coffee every morning, but ditch it for the whole month of May. Every buck saves someone!

See, the sky's the limit! You decide how you're gonna get active and support this noble cause. Rock this challenge as an individual or rally your support group as a steely team.

And here's the best part – it's practically free to join in.

Sounds good? ThenIt's high time you got your Step Up on! You can do this as an independent superhero or rally your Support Group like the dynamic duo you are. Exclusive reward for Support Groups, you ask? Win the highest amount raised in May, and we'll throw a tasty $500 gift card your way.

Your Support Group team page is already set up and waiting for you. All you gotta do is join the party using these simple steps:

  1. Pay a visit to www.stepupforparkinsons.org.au/support-groups
  2. Search like a boss for your Support Group, click on the shiny tile
  3. Click on the green 'Join team' button and follow the easy-peasy steps to create your very own fundraising page.
  4. Once you're done with the groundwork, your page will connect automatically with your Support Group team page.

Wondering about the top performers in the Support Group competition? Just take a peek at the 'Support Group Step Up for Parkinson's Leaderboard'. You'll see who's in the lead for that extra-juicy $500 gift card towards the end of May.

Now, about those wills and designated gifts for future generations... A bequest or gift in your will gives a helping hand to a cherished charity or individual in need once you've bid adieu to this world. Such gifts can make a world of difference for everyday support and crucial research.

Some Parkinson's warriors face challenges with applying makeup, so here's a4 useful tip: prepare in advance, sit comfortably, and follow step-by-step guidelines to make life a little sweeter for those dealing with quivers and loss of dexterity.

Keep up with Parkinson's NSW's innovations! They've recently launched Module 3 of their online Parkinson's education series. This newest addition, Exercise, equips exercise professionals to explain the remarkable benefits of exercise for those affected by Parkinson's.

Stay savvy and compassionate, folks! Let's Step Up for Parkinson's together and make a lasting, positive impact in the world.

  1. Form a health-and-wellness group dedicated to raising funds for Parkinson's, focusing on science and mental health, by participating in the Step Up for Parkinson's challenge.
  2. To boost the group's impact, establish a fitness-and-exercise regimen, such as a daily walk goal or physio challenges, and consider adopting a healthy-diet plan for better support.
  3. Engage in nutritional workshops, science-based discussions, and support group meetings to stimulate collective growth while advocating for and contributing to the health-and-wellness of those battling Parkinson's.
