World Parkinson’s Congress in Barcelona, 4-7 July 2023:
We were there!
The Congress resumed this year after a four year break. Martin, Kevin, Sally, Jonathan, Paul and Julie all went to this exciting, inspiring, exhausting, and certainly in Paul’s case, entertaining event. Their stories and reports show that it was not just a jolly jaunt, and certainly not a freebie; our participants covered all their own costs without any subsidy from the Branch. They worked hard, presenting, researching, listening and retaining information to bring back to Branch members through this Newsletter.
It’s a terrifically inspiring and uplifting Newsletter. On behalf of all Branch members, we would like to thank Martin, Kevin, Sally, Jonathan, Paul and Julie hugely for going to Barcelona and contributing to the World Parkinson’s Congress, and sharing their findings with us.
