Former BBC journalist Jeremy Paxman presents Parky Charter for improving Parkinson's disease care to Downing Street, receiving support from PM Rishi Sunak.

Former BBC journalist Jeremy Paxman, diagnosed with Parkinson's, presented the Parky Charter to Downing Street on World Parkinson's Day. The charter proposes five key recommendations for improving Parkinson's disease care, including swift access to specialists under the NHS, a Parkinson's UK pamphlet for enhanced awareness, a Parkinson's passport for automatic entitlement to benefits, improved comprehensive care, and increased government funding for research. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak expressed support for the charter, while Paxman expressed skepticism about its impact.
