Ambassador update

Parkinson’s Australia extends its gratitude to Damien for his dedication to the Parkinson’s community as he joins us as an official Parkinson’s Australia Ambassador!

“I’m honoured to be an Ambassador for Parkinson’s Australia. 

Losing my father to Parkinson’s was one of the hardest things I’ve ever been through. Throughout his illness, one of the most difficult parts was how unpredictable it was—no two days were the same. On top of that, there was so much misinformation out there, making it even harder for families like mine to navigate.

That’s why I’m incredibly honoured to be an ambassador for Parkinson’s Australia, helping to raise awareness, support those living with the condition, and connect with the amazing people fighting for better care and research.

No one should have to face this alone.”

~ Damien Leith, Parkinson’s Australia Ambassador

Damien Leith is a multi-talented artist who has made his mark in Australia as a singer/ songwriter, producer, author, playwright and TV/radio host personality.

The talented family man first captured the attention and affection of Australians when he contested the 2006 edition of Australian Idol – a series he went on to win. Since then, he has toured every year and continued to grow as an artist and performer. His latest venture, Ireland Orchestrated sees him performing beautiful Irish classics with a full orchestra.
