We are delighted to announce that our Co-Founder and Director, Charlie Appleyard, has been awarded an MBE in His Majesty The King’s Birthday Honours List for services to people with Parkinson’s and Fundraising.

While this recognition was never the reason Charlie founded Sport Parkinson's, his vision has always been to create more opportunities for people living with Parkinson’s to be active, connected and supported through sport and exercise.

Charlie is deeply humbled to receive this honour and shares it with the entire Parkinson’s community, whose determination and inspiration continue to drive our work.

Congratulations, Charlie and thank you for your unwavering commitment to improving lives of those in our community.

At Sport Parkinson's, we greatly value the feedback we receive from our community. The Walking Football Tournament held in April at St George's Park was a tremendous success, and the positive comments from attendees were a testament to the day's achievements.

The event photos featured on our website are free to download and share with friends, family, and others in the community who may be interested in joining us at future events.

Whilst some of our community are representing us at the World Parkinson Congress in Phoenix, USA, gathering the latest information on Parkinson’s, we’re reminded more than ever how important community is to us all.

Please don’t let people living with Parkinson’s face it alone. Reach out, include them, and help them stay active and connected with friends.

Football is a wonderful way to do that, but it can be anything that gets people moving together. Living with Parkinson’s is hard enough without the added challenge of isolation.
