Free Parkinson's seminar

Free Parkinson’s information seminar

All In One Fitness Centre at Beerwah is pleased to host another free community discussion, this time focussing on Parkinson’s disease.

Guest speakers will be Parkinson’s disease clinical nurses from the Maleny Soldiers Memorial Hospital. The hour-long information session will be held at Vianta (Simpson Street, Beerwah) on Thursday, June 6 at 2pm.

Taz Calandruccio, owner of All In One Fitness Centre, explained that the need for this type of seminar was prompted by feedback received from members. Taz said that health conditions such as Parkinson’s had been particularly highlighted by those attending the centre’s over 55s fitness program.

“Our membership for our over 55s program continues to do well and we now run six classes. We’ve found that with an older client we are addressing different health concerns compared with our younger clients, and so wanted to put something on that was informative and hopefully of benefit to the wider community,” he said.

“With some of our older members affected by Parkinson’s we thought it’d be great to increase the general community knowledge around this disease.”

The seminar is open to the public and attendance is free. Any donations raised on the day will go to Parkinson’s Queensland.
