Article on PSP awareness in Star Weekly Australia

Exciting News from the Coleen Cunningham Foundation!  

We are thrilled to announce that a fantastic article on PSP awareness has been published in an Australian newspaper, organized by Peter Firmin a dedicated member of our support and advocacy committee. This is the first initiative from our committee, chaired by Tim Brown, and we couldn't be prouder! The article, featuring a wonderful picture of Peter and Ronwyn, highlights the importance of raising awareness for PSP and sharing personal stories. We are grateful for Peter's initiative and effort in making this happen.

Hello, my friend who was diagnosed with PSP in 2022 and then additionally CBD and FTD in early 2024 lives on the Sunshine Coast, QLD. I’d love to link in with others in the region or at least Australia. We have been part of the UK PSP site since early 2023 as we just don’t have the level of resource here in Australia. I’ve supported him since diagnosis in a professional capacity since diagnosis. We often have to ‘educate’ health professionals on this condition as most health professionals here seem not to have any awareness of PSP.
