As some of you may know, I have been involved in this trial to help with recruitment and assessment of participants. We are now entering the last 6 months of recruitment - feel free to share to anyone in your world who may be curious to take part.

This is a national clinical trial and there are other sites involved in the UK.

Happy Monday

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Lovely news from Asda! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Asda is once again offering £1 café meals for over-60s — a simple but heart-warming gesture to help tackle loneliness and the rising cost of living this winter. ♥️

From 1st November, anyone aged 60 or over can enjoy a bowl of soup, a bread roll, and unlimited tea or coffee for just £1 — and most importantly, a chance for a good chat. ☕

Available in Asda cafés across the UK, it’s a wonderful initiative that brings people together when it’s needed most. 👏

A week ago, we had our “green light” to open the Swansea site (Rehab Engineering Unit, Morriston Hospital) for this national research, which explores the use of electrical stimulation to improve movement of people with Parkinson’s disease.

Today, we’ve officially recruited an eligible participant…and so the story begins!

What a difference a week makes!

Could you (or someone you know) be next?

As most of you already know, I’m part of a research study for people with Parkinson’s disease (PD), exploring the use of electrical stimulation to help with walking difficulties.

STEPS II is a National Institute for Health and Care Research funded study for people with Parkinson’s Disease (PD), sponsored by Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust and managed by the University of Plymouth's Peninsula Clinical Trials Unit.

This is a study testing a device that aims to improve walking in people with PD. The device is attached to the leg and produces small electrical impulses that improve movement, using a safe technique called functional electrical stimulation (FES).
A previously carried out small (feasibility) study showed that FES can help patients walk faster and reduce some symptoms of PD.

Morriston Hospital Rehab Engineering Unit has been selected as one of the 7 trial sites in the UK and we now have our ‘green light’ for participant recruitment. We are the only Wales site for this study.

If you are curious or would like to register your interest, or if you know anyone in your world who may be curious to find out more, please use the link below

And please feel free to share or forward this post! Thank you!!!
