Song to raise awareness of Parkinson's disease

Available for over a year

A Leicestershire man has released a song to raise awareness of living with Parkinson's disease. One in 37 people in the UK will be diagnosed with Parkinsons, a condition which can cause tremors, muscle stiffness and slurred speech. Robin Buttery was diagnosed back in 2015 and has re-written a Depeche Mode song that's called "Shake the disease". Robin told Ady Dayman how the idea came about.
