World Parkinson's Day is this Thursday April 11th and to raise awareness and funds several bars in Perth will be hosting
Shaking For Parkinson's, a unique campaign designed to raise awareness.
Every hour of every day someone is diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in Australia and further research is vital to provide help to people already suffering with this debilitating disease and to find preventative measures that can be taken.
With the research done so far we have already learned so much about Parkinsons, including the fact that it not only affects elderly people but that one in every seven diagnosed is under the age of 40.
Shaking for Parkinson's will raise awareness of Parkinson's disease amongst a younger audience, which is very important for understanding and to move forward into the future with a very real understanding of how this disease affects so many families.
From Thursday April 11 until Sunday April 14, 2013 four bars in Perth are donating $2 from each cocktail sold to Parkinson's W.A. to benefit their vital work.
Pure Bar Subiaco, The Classroom in North Perth, Metro Bar & Bistro in the city and Frisk Small Bar in Northbridge. For more information head to www.parkinsonswa.org.au/support-us/shaking-for-parkinsons.
