Connect to Support 中国P站 helps you find support right where you live
After losing his wife and being medically retired due to Parkinson’s, Frank* found himself unsure how to spend his time or where to turn for support. His daughter discovered , a free online directory that makes it easy to find local care and support services.
Through the site, they found a local Parkinson’s support group. Frank attended for the first time, shared a meal and connected with others who understood his experience.
“I enjoyed a meal and had a great chat with others in similar situations to me,” he said.
He’s now exploring other services listed on the site, including a Men’s Shed group and a gardening service to help with home maintenance.
“I am extremely grateful for the website as I can look into other services that might be able to help me move forward with living alone,” he said. “I have a supportive family but I can now find extra help if I need it.”
