Alongside members of the Movers and Shakers podcast, they delivered the "Parky Charter" - a petition with tens of thousands of signatures - to Downing Street on World Parkinson's Day.

The charter includes five recommendations: quick access to specialists under the NHS, a Parkinson's UK pamphlet for enhanced support, a Parkinson's passport for automatic benefits, improved comprehensive care with regular consultations, and increased government funding for research towards a cure.

Paxman, 73, criticized the government's response to the disease after the delivery.

The prime minister, Rishi Sunak, expressed support for a charter and petition aimed at improving social care for the elderly.

However, journalist Jeremy Paxman expressed skepticism, believing the government would ignore the charter and that it would have no impact.

Paxman expressed frustration with the government's past neglect of social care responsibilities.

Parkinson's UK reports that approximately 1 in 37 people in the UK will develop Parkinson's disease during their lifetime.

Currently, around 153,000 individuals in the country live with this neurological condition.
