HELP is at hand.
That is the message from the Louth and District Parkinson's Disease Society, a support group for those suffering from the disease and their families.
Chairman Michael Swift said: "We are trying to raise awareness that help is available to people and we welcome anybody from anywhere in North East Lincolnshire to get in touch.
"We have monthly meetings and lunch clubs, trips out and we also do a good deal of fundraising."
Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition affecting movement including walking, talking and writing.
The group will meet again in January 2009, with a lunch club at the Wagon And Horses, in South Reston, near Louth, on January 15. There is also a table-top sale on Wednesday, November 26, at the Salvation Army Buildings, in Church Lane, Louth, from 11am.
