Activities



Our Meetings offer you the chance to share your experiences with others.

We have a good selection of booklets and leaflets dealing with all aspects of living with Parkinson’s.

The meeting is free and we provide tea, coffee and biscuits and hold a small raffle. It is an opportunity to socialise and sometimes we have speakers on various topics. We also arrange outings.

Meetings are every second Tuesday in the month.

Commencing at 2pm and ending between 3.30pm and 4.00pm



Please be aware that as from Tuesday 14th January 2025, we will be in another new venue.

The Community Link, The Saffron Walden Building Society, 1A Market Street, CB10 1HX

The entrance is opposite our previous venue in the Town Hall, off the Market Square, just along from Boots.
