Thanet Group Social Meeting

The group has been meeting at its present location for nearly 30 years. We provide an opportunity to meet, talk or just listen to other members with Parkinson’s in a warm friendly environment. We charge £3.50 per person (partner/carer goes free).

We have singing sessions as part of some of our social meetings. This is an informal sing-a-long with instruments to popular music, this always raises spirits and helps with many of Parkinson’s symptoms associated with speech and swallowing. 

In addition to the social part of our meetings, our qualified exercise instructor holds a seated exercise session, this is optional to join. This is great fun and it makes sure that members keep their muscle flexibility and mobility.

We also organise many social activities throughout the year. These include lunches, cream teas and theatre outings at local venues.

Disabled parking is on the street outside the church or in nearby Morrison's car park.

Entry will be via the main entrance in Union Crescent - we are only using the large upper hall.

There will be refreshments and a raffle.

The group can arrange taxis for those needing transport and please contact Douglas for more information.

For taxis we use Central Cars on 01843 888888.
