  Parkinson’s disease affects a lot of elderly people. A lot of us at some point in our lives will know someone affected by this disease. I think pupils should be aware of these diseases and what causes them because they are the scientists of the future. We need to get pupils interested in studying these diseases so that one day we can cure them and help the people effected by them.
