Vanessa Lynne

On this week's episode, we speak to Vanessa Lynne, who lives with Parkinson’s disease, as did her father and brother. She is very passionate about raising awareness and funds for research, and has created a sustainable gift wrapping business where all the proceeds go to Shake It Up. You can check it out at https://www.instagram.com/prezziesax_for_parkinsons/

Vanessa has also written and illustrated a children's book, 'Grandma, Parkie and Me'. to explain to her grandchildren, in simple terms, how Parkinson's can affect her day-to-day. It is available on Amazon Kindle.
