We're a group of people who have early onset Parkinson's, with all of the challenges that brings but we don't let it get us down.
YMCA Glenrothes, North Street, Glenrothes. KY7 5PP
First Tuesday of the month between 7 & 9pm.
Come and join us, we're a group of people who have early onset Parkinson's. That means that we are pre-retirement, of working age, which has its own set of problems.
We meet once a month at the YMCA Glenrothes and you can have a friendly chat with others who are experiencing the same challanges that you are.
We meet on the first Tuesday of the month between 7 and 9pm.
Our Walking Group meets every other week for a stroll through the lovely Fife countryside, usually followed by a light lunch. The walks are open to anyone with Parkinson's and their supporters.
The group meets every other Friday and the well organised walks are suitable for all abilities because we all have good days and bad days. Our walks vary in distance and are mostly on the level with small inclines. On some of the longer walks we have a car at the midway point to take anyone to the finish if required. We walk throughout Fife trying to find interesting walks and scenery. After our walk we try to finish at a café for refreshments.
We have teamed up with Walking Football Scotland and Dunfermline Athletic to bring a weekly session of Walking Football to Fife.
Sessions are at the Pars training ground at Pitreavie Soccer Centre every Friday at 1:30pm.
Enjoy a lively game and whether you use the bumpers or not we won’t be judgmental because we all have good and bad days. It’s the taking part that counts.
We meet once a month, on the third Tuesday of the month, at the Hollywood Bowl in Dunfermline.
This group meets at the Cosmos Centre, St Andrews every Tuesday between 11:30 and 12:30.
All abilities welcome, you don't have to have played before because our team of volunteers will look after you.
We meet every Wednesday at the Abbeyview Bowling Club for a competitive game - but don’t worry because it’s just for fun and all abilities are welcome.
Bowls and coaching are available and we always have time for a break halfway through for a drink and a chat.
The cost is £5.50 per week.
The Coffee and Chat group meet once a month, on the second Wednesday of the month, to discuss various topics and 'put the world to rights' They sometimes broach the subject of Parkinson`s, but this is not their main talking point.
We also have a range of virtual activities, if you'd like to attend please get in touch for joining information
