On a bright, piping hot Saturday morning at Toa Payoh Hub, Move to Beat Parkinson 2018 brought together the local Parkinson community, their supporters and everyone else who is fighting the same battle albeit in different ways. This meaningful event showcased the various types of activities that can potentially improve the overall quality of life of someone with Parkinson’s. The line-up of activities included interactive booths that educate the public on Parkinson’s and Parkinson-friendly exercises such as Kickboxing and Zumba. Our lab promoted public awareness of Parkinson’s through some simple mix-and-match booth games.

 

As seen engaging with the public and members of the local Parkinson community:

It warmed our hearts to witness the enthusiasm radiating not only from the Parkinson community but also from the general public. After connecting with some members of the community, we are now more motivated in our pursuit of finding a cure for Parkinson’s.
