Posted: 06/11/2024

In this webinar we were joined by Emma, David, Jackie and Rick to discuss access to mental health services in relation to a neurodegenerative condition.

In the second webinar of our series, we facilitated a live conversation to discuss access to mental health services for people living with, or supporting someone living with, a neurodegenerative condition. Our speakers comprise:

  • Emma Edwards, Specialist Parkinson’s Nurse, Trustee of Spotlight YOPD and Clinical Research Nurse Fellow
  • David Stephenson, Head of Policy and Public Affairs, Huntington’s Disease Association
  • Two experts by experience from our FRIEND group (For Research Involvement Experts in Neurodegeneration), Jackie, who has lived experience of Huntington’s disease, and Rick, who lives with motor neurone disease.
