This week on the show, join Simon and Andrew as they chat to the CEO of Parkinson's WA, Yasmin Naglazas, about how this disease affects West Australians with Parkinson’s and what they do to make their lives less restricted. With a focus on community through support groups and connections, those effected can find hope and meaning. 

This episode is the second in our spotlight during Parkinson's Awareness month, a time of education and acknowledgement of the disease and its impact. If you'd like to learn more about the disease and how you can spread awareness click here to visit the Parkinson's WA website. 

April 11th is World Parkinson's Day and to celebrate Parkinson's Australia and The Global Alliance to End Parkinson's Association are inviting everyone to #sparkthenight. You can help by following the link here to ask public landmarks to light up in blue.

In the words of Simon, shining a light on things that are often hidden in plain sight.
