Everyone living with Parkinson’s faces special challenges. Thankfully many of them are also supported by special people. 

Jan has been living with Parkinson’s for 15 years and has her very own dedicated support team of 11 family members spanning several generations.

Jan’s son and grandson in particular find her an inspiration in their lives, so they have rallied family members to walk for her.

“Jan is an inspiration in my own life, and I’m also inspired by the work that Parkinson’s NSW does. The more people who know about Parkinson’s, the greater the impact we can make,” said Jan’s son John.

“We want to raise money to enable Parkinson’s NSW to better support and advocate for people living with Parkinson’s. In doing this, we also want to make a difference for our awesome and beloved Jan.”

Thanks to Team Jan for their fundraising efforts. We hope their story inspires you to similarly reach out for support in the lead-up to your walk.
