Parkinson’s Australia’s “I Am More Than My Parkinson’s” campaign is a powerful initiative launched to coincide with World Parkinson’s Day during Parkinson’s Awareness Month in April. The campaign aims to highlight the individuality and resilience of people living with Parkinson’s and young onset Parkinson’s, emphasising that their condition does not define them.
The campaign features personal stories, videos, and community events that showcase the diverse lives and achievements of people living with Parkinson’s. It also encourages broader awareness and understanding of the condition, fostering a sense of connection and advocacy within the community.
As part of the campaign, Parkinson’s Australia participates in the global World Parkinson’s Night #SparktheNight campaign, with landmarks across the country lighting up in BLUE to show solidarity and raise awareness. This initiative is a testament to the organisation’s commitment to advocacy, education, and support for those affected by Parkinson’s.
