MS & Parkinsons Canterbury
We offer professional support, information and education for people with Multiple Sclerosis or Parkinson's and their families.
Canterbury
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Parkinson’s Canterbury provides services and support for people diagnosed with MS or Parkinson’s , and their care partners and family/whanau. These are life-long, chronic, neurological conditions and those living with these conditions are often reluctant to engage with either local community groups or support organisations. We are working to remove the barriers and offer a safe, inclusive, and secure place where everyone is welcomed and enabled to live well in their community.
We have been providing service to our Community since 1962 and all money donated to the Trust remains in Canterbury and provides direct support for our Service users. Our team is highly regarded in professional circles, both locally and nationally as a resource for evidence-based information and services.
We believe everyone should have the opportunity to live their lives to the fullest. 90% of the money our organisation needs to provide our services, comes from donations, grants, and fundraising activities
