How to become a member

To become a member, please complete our Enquiry Form or phone us on 01227 824775 and our Administrative Co-ordinator will be in touch.

Becoming a PCIT Member

PCIT membership enables people with Parkinson’s to have full access to all the services that PCIT currently provides. 

An initial 90 minute assessment costs £35 which, should you choose to join, also includes your first year of PCIT membership.  The assessment enables us to create a person-centred plan of therapy for you.  Therapy sessions now have a fixed pricing system: 1-1 sessions are £35 and group classes/session are charged at £10 per person.

Whilst PCIT are committed to keeping our prices as affordable as possible, we recognise that some members may be experiencing extra  financial challenges.  If this applies to you, please feel free to talk to our Administrative Coordinator, Clare Walker, in complete confidence. We now have a small concessionary fund available and in certain circumstances, may be able to assist you with the cost of therapies.
