Do you like to travel and attend events or activities but have been impacted by Parkinson’s and are now finding it difficult to plan, communicate, undertake self-care or need mobility assistance?
The National Companion Card brings together state and territory programs that enable eligible people with disability to participate at venues and activities without incurring the cost of a second ticket for your primary care person (aka companion). Companion card numbers are also used to book reduced airline fares for the accompanying support person (please check with airlines if they have a disability and/companion fare).
