UPBEAT is a special interest group for people with early-onset Parkinson's, their whanau/families and friends. For information on early-onset Parkinson’s, click here

What does UPBEAT do?

Upbeat exists to provide people with early-onset Parkinson’s and their whanau and friends, a forum to communicate with other people and to share information, ideas and experiences.

Many of our divisions have UPBEAT groups, and nationally, Parkinson’s New Zealand provides a newsletter, an Outward Bound course and an annual weekend conference.
