Join us at Queen’s University Belfast for an engaging workshop-style training event designed specifically for those working in care home settings. This interactive session will help you enhance your confidence and skills in supporting residents living with Parkinson's Disease.

Whether you’re a registered nurse, care assistant, or part of a care home management team, you’ll gain practical education about Parkinson's Disease.

This isn’t a conference — it’s a hands-on workshop, with round-table discussions, interactive breakout sessions, and opportunities to share experiences and best practices with colleagues across the sector.

Enjoy tea, coffee, and scones on arrival, and a complimentary lunch provided on site.

Places are free but limited, and available on a first-come, first-served basis — early registration is advised!

👉 Register now to secure your place and join us in improving Parkinson's Disease care for residents across Northern Ireland.
