The Parky Card orders have come in thick and fast these past few months. Infact, we’re very pleased to announce that Parkylife is officially in every continent across the world. Well, minus Antarctica – but we’re sure we can work on getting some sledged over.
This does mean that we have sold out. So while we have a little restock, please bear with us and we’ll be back with more packs as soon as possible.
We are so proud to launch Parky Cards, a deck of 50 unique cards designed for people with Parkinson’s.
Co-created with the Parkinson’s community, and brought to life by 50 different illustrators, each card offers its own nugget of Parky positivity, whether that’s a lifehack, a funny story, an inspiring quote or a sunnier way of seeing your symptoms.
Let’s face it: Parkinson’s is a disease that doesn’t give you much to smile about. But that’s exactly why we created these cards. They’re little doses of positivity that you can dip in and out of, whenever you need them. And because we want these to be accessible for everyone, they’re completely free.
So get yourself a pack. Order one for a friend or family member. And spread the smiles. Order yours here
Parkylife was in London last night celebrating the power of positivity. Exhibiting in King’s Cross, we showcased our complete range of artwork – with 50 bold, bright, joyful visuals from some of the world’s most talented artists and illustrators. We auctioned off some special prizes on the night, including a bottle of whiskey designed by Parky contributor Shotopop, and an original print of our ‘In Stiches’story, submitted by Sue Woodfield and brought to life by Sarah Walton.
A huge thanks to everyone who came, bought stuff, and generally added to the cheer. It’s nights like this that really prove what’s possible in the world of Parkinson’s.
We have Parky lift-off.
The Parkylife initiative launched in Manchester today with an exhibition celebrating the (amazing, generous,
lovely) people that made it a reality. Illustrators, supporters, doctors and Parky peeps gathered to raise a glass
to the brighter side of Parkinson’s.
The exhibition featured some of the standout stories and quotes, alongside their artwork, with illustrator
Emma Evans creating a live illustration for us on the night.
Matt Eagles, Founder of Parkylife, spoke about the need for the project – ‘You can find Parky wins in your day,’ he said. And he’s right. This is just the beginning. We’re going to spread the smiles to more Parky people around the world and fight Parkinson’s with positivity.
Watch this space.
