Parkinson's VR Opportunity

We are looking for people living with Parkinson’s to take part in our 16-week Virtual Reality exercise program (8 weeks VR / 8 weeks physical exercise). We are interested to learn what it is like to exercise with VR and what affect this may have on the intensity of exercise achieved. 

All classes are FREE, will be seated and tailored to everyone’s needs to make sure people are exercising at the right level for them.  

You will be invited to participate in an exercise study, looking at the effect of VR in people with Parkinson’s, if you do not wish to be part of the study that is not a problem as these sessions are open to all. 

We are aiming to recruit 36 volunteers with a diagnosis of Parkinson's - 12 in each cohort.

If you would like to be involved, you would be invited to attend Morgan's Gym in Truro, once a week for 16 weeks to participate in the seated exercise training programme. Training will take place on non-consecutive days. The training programme will start on 3rd November each training session will start at 14:00 and last no longer than 45 minutes. 

Morgan's Gym has wheelchair and level access and accessible toilets located close to the rooms that we will use.
