EOPD.ie at the My Moving Brain: Community Connect Event in Maynooth – Saturday, 28th June 2025

EOPD.ie are delighted to announce that we will be holding a stall at the upcoming My Moving Brain: Community Connect event taking place on Saturday, 28th June 2025, from 1:30 PM at Maynooth Post Primary School Sports Hall (Maynooth Education Campus).

This promises to be an inspiring and inclusive day that brings together people from all walks of life to share their experiences and ideas around brain health and breaking down barriers to participation in sport for those living with brain conditions. The event is open to people of all ages and all abilities, and everyone is welcome.

We’re especially proud to share that one of our members, Phillip O’Dwyer, will be speaking at the event about his personal journey following an Early Onset Parkinson’s diagnosis. His story is one of resilience, hope, and advocacy, and we’re thrilled to have him representing our community.

We invite you to come along and meet the EOPD.ie team at our stand—find out about our work, our upcoming events, and the many ways you can get involved in our vibrant and welcoming community of inspiring people living with Early Onset Parkinson’s Disease.

Whether you’re living with a brain condition, a family member, a healthcare professional, sports coach, teacher, researcher, or simply someone interested in brain health and inclusion—this event has something for everyone.

Expect a full day of:

  • Inspirational talks from people with lived experience
  • Practical strategies to promote inclusion in sport
  • Fun, interactive science activities with FutureNeuro (like DNA extraction from bananas and exploring brain waves!)
  • A range of inclusive ‘come and try’ sports sessions with Kildare Sports Partnership and local clubs

Don’t miss out on this meaningful opportunity to connect, learn, and be part of a growing movement to support people living with neurological conditions in living full, active lives.

We can’t wait to see you there!
