These advertisements were released last year by Parkinson’s UK and developed by The Assembly Network to maximise awareness of the disease. The adverts display how those suffering from Parkinson’s receive mixed messages from the brain while also informing us of the challenges sufferers of the disease face. Daily activities such as putting on socks or making a cup tea are daunting tasks.

Parkinson’s is a disease that sees the degeneration of the nervous system which affects a person’s movement. The most common signs of the disease are tremors while it can also cause stiffness or slowing of movement.
