Tennis Event for World Parkinson’s Day

By Lynn Tearse

World Parkinson’s Day is 11th April. We are helping Janet Duffy (Neurophysio at James Cook janet.duffy1@nhs.net) to organise a table tennis event in the atrium at James Cook 9.30 - 1.00. Myself and my partner (we both have Parkinson’s and run the table tennis group at Ormesby) will be at the hospital throughout, together with members of our Parkinson’s table tennis group. We have just been awarded a grant from Table Tennis England to develop our table tennis sessions. (Research has shown that playing table tennis improves Parkinson’s symptoms).
