About this listen

 At LivedHealth, we produce patient-led content that shines light on long-term health conditions.

There are an abundance of online resources for people living with MS and Parkinson's, but what about those co-designed with and created by patients themselves?

Every episode features a host living with a long-term condition who interviews a world-leading professional, each with a different specialty. Together, we highlight unheard stories and break down complex issues; there will always be something our audience can relate to.
