Membership Donations
We hope you will agree to join us and donate an amount for your yearly membership, (you do not have to donate the same amount each year). If you cannot afford to donate, please join us anyway because we understand everyone’s situation is different. All money donated to Northants Parkinson’s People is spent locally on supporting people affected by Parkinson’s.
(** If you would like to take time to consider whether to join please still come along to an activity or give us a call for a chat. We still want to support you, but we will not be able to offer subsidised or reduced costs for activities and outings and only members have a say in the running of the charity).
Please see our terms and conditions: ‘Membership Rules’ in Charity Policies.
