At Parkinson Society Singapore (PSS), I feel at ease as I treated the centre as my second home. The programmes are enjoyable and I got along well with my peers. I find the staff friendly and approachable as they are willing to go the extra mile for Persons with Parkinson (PwP). I feel a sense of security, support and care at the centre. I want to say this: “Do not be shy to share what you have been through. All of us will be with you in your journey with Parkinson.”
– Ms Christine Seng
I joined Parkinson Society Singapore (PSS) in March 2023 and was happy to have made a lot of friends in the centre while enjoying programmes such as Kickboxing. I also took the opportunity to join the Walking Club to keep fit and active. I enjoyed the good company, the games and the camaraderie with others.

I joined Parkinson Society Singapore (PSS) since year 2017. Whenever I stepped into the centre, I feel ease and comfortable as if I was at home. It makes me feel a sense of belonging and I try my best to take part in every event, if possible. The people (PSS staff, instructors) are very dedicated and passionate towards me and often give me continuous encouragement to do stuff with a positive attitude. Their warmth made me feel that I can cope with Parkinson better.
– Ms Jane Tan
My wife and I joined Parkinson Society Singapore (PSS) at the beginning of 2023. I felt the warmth and dedication whenever I am at the centre. The programmes are interesting, and I am glad they improved my wife’s condition. We regularly stay over after physiotherapy sessions to chit chat with other members. In all, we are very heartened and happy with the progress we have made at the centre.
