The Parkinson's Disease Society says "Thank-you" to John Firth and the Atherton and Tyldesley Round Table


We are delighted and honoured to be chosen as the main beneficiary of the 2002 Bent and Bongs Beer Bash. The benefit is not just in money but in publicity for the Society and its services. Since 1985, the Bolton Branch has offered a service to people in Atherton and Tyldesley:
  We welcome anyone with an interest in Parkinson's whether they want to be active members or just want to keep in touch with someone who can offer information, advice or a sympathetic ear.
  We have Welfare Visitors who can visit enquirers and members at home, listen to their worries or questions and help to sort out any problems. They have very good contacts with a wide range of other services to ensure that everyone with Parkinson's get the information, services and benefits they need.
  We have a Carers' Club which meets most third Wednesday's 2-4pm at the Friends Meeting House, Silverwell Street, Bolton.
  The Branch meeting at 7-30pm on the second Tuesday of most months is held at the Theatre Church, Seymour Road, AStley Bridge, Bolton. There is easy access, good toilet facilities and parking space. We run a transport service for those who need it. We also arrange outings and special events.
