Calgary Parkinson’s Research Initiative (CaPRI)
Parkinson’s disease is a daily struggle for over 100,000 Canadians, causing tremor, slowness, stiffness and changes in gait. Many patients also have non-motor symptoms affecting various other aspects of their lives.
Calgary Parkinson Research Initiative (CaPRI) is a research network that will allow the University of Calgary to become a leader in basic and clinical research in the field of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and related disorders. It will allow understanding of the origins of the disease and its diverse symptoms, as well as developing and testing treatments to address them.
The MS Walk
Every year over 40,000 Canadians in more than 160 communities across our country lace up at the MS Walk to raise vital funds for people living with MS.
This family-oriented, community-supported event offers walking routes of varying lengths – including a wheelchair-accessible route – and features start/finish line activities such as inspiring words from MS Ambassadors (people living with MS), entertainment, team awards and more.
Parkinson's Super Walk
This is the largest national fundraising event for Parkinson Society Canada (PSC) and its regional partners. Approximately 14,000 participants from coast-to-coast organize and take part in Parkinson SuperWalk.
