7–15 November 2026: Discover the everyday challenges faced by people living with Parkinson’s disease at Warrior 24/7, a free interactive exhibition at City Square Mall featuring seven hands-on experiences.

Warrior 24/7: The Parkinson Challenge arrives at City Square Mall from 7 to 15 November 2026, inviting visitors to better understand what everyday life can be like for people living with Parkinson’s disease.

Presented by Lien Foundation and developed with contributions from Parkinson Society Singapore, healthcare professionals, people living with Parkinson’s and their caregivers, the exhibition features seven interactive stations inspired by familiar daily activities.

From fastening a shirt button and handling eating utensils to navigating an MRT platform, each experience illustrates how symptoms such as muscle rigidity, tremors and movement difficulties can affect activities many people take for granted.

Conceived and designed by Kinetic Singapore, the exhibition first opened at Singapore Institute of Technology’s Punggol Campus from 31 October to 4 November before moving to City Square Mall.

Discover everyday movement challenges: Try simulated tasks involving restricted movement, hand tremors and difficulties with coordination to gain a limited understanding of selected symptoms.

Navigate a simulated MRT platform: Experience an activity designed to illustrate how shuffling steps, slower movement and freezing of gait can complicate public transport journeys.

Hear real-life perspectives: Learn from stories contributed by people living with Parkinson’s and their caregivers, highlighting challenges, resilience and the importance of community support.

Leave a message of encouragement: The final station invites visitors to reflect on what they have learned and share supportive messages with Parkinson Warriors and their caregivers.

Receive a commemorative keycharm: Visitors who complete all seven stations can receive a specially designed keycharm as a reminder of the exhibition’s message.

What Is Warrior 24/7?

Warrior 24/7: The Parkinson Challenge is an interactive public awareness exhibition designed to encourage greater understanding of Parkinson’s disease and the people who live with it.

Parkinson’s is a progressive neurological condition that can affect movement, coordination and other aspects of daily life. Its symptoms vary between individuals and may include tremors, stiffness, slowed movement, walking difficulties and changes in speech.

The exhibition focuses on the challenges that can arise during ordinary activities, using hands-on experiences to encourage visitors to consider the patience, adjustments and support that some people with Parkinson’s may need.

According to the organisers, approximately 10,000 people in Singapore live with Parkinson’s disease, with around 400 new diagnoses annually.

The initiative also marks 30 years of Parkinson Society Singapore, which provides rehabilitation, social support and community programmes for people living with the condition and their families.

Importantly, the exhibition’s simulated activities offer only a brief illustration of selected symptoms. They cannot fully recreate the physical, emotional and social experiences of living with Parkinson’s disease.

Seven Interactive Stations at Warrior 24/7

The exhibition takes visitors through seven activities based on situations that people encounter in everyday life.

1. Getting Dressed: Attempt to fasten clothing while experiencing simulated muscle rigidity and reduced fine motor control, illustrating why handling buttons and other small fastenings can become difficult.

2. Eating Breakfast: Handle eating utensils while experiencing simulated hand tremors, exploring how an everyday meal can require additional concentration and effort.

3. Catching the MRT: Navigate a mock MRT platform designed to illustrate walking difficulties, restricted steps and freezing of gait, when movement may temporarily become difficult to initiate or continue.

4. Carrying a Meal: Attempt to move through a simulated food court while carrying a tray, exploring how balance, coordination and attention can affect a familiar lunchtime routine.

5. Writing a Note: Explore micrographia, a symptom associated with unusually small or cramped handwriting, through a specially designed writing activity.

6. Making Your Voice Heard: Take part in a vocal activity illustrating hypophonia, a condition involving reduced speech volume that can make communication more challenging.

7. Sharing Encouragement: Reflect on the experience and leave a message of support for Parkinson Warriors and their caregivers.

Visitors who complete the full experience can receive a commemorative keycharm.

The People Behind Warrior 24/7

Warrior 24/7 is spearheaded by Lien Foundation, with exhibition design by Kinetic Singapore and contributions from Parkinson Society Singapore, people living with Parkinson’s, caregivers and healthcare professionals.

The development process also involved expertise from Tan Tock Seng Hospital, the National Neuroscience Institute and Singapore Institute of Technology.

The exhibition was launched on 31 October 2026 at SIT Punggol Campus with Jimmy Choi, an athlete, Parkinson’s advocate and former American Ninja Warrior competitor, alongside his wife and care partner, Cherryl Choi.

Diagnosed with young-onset Parkinson’s disease at 27, Jimmy has used his sporting achievements and public advocacy to challenge assumptions about what people living with the condition can accomplish.

The campaign also highlights the importance of recognising symptoms, seeking appropriate medical advice and connecting people with rehabilitation and community support.

Parkinson Society Singapore’s initiatives include KEEP (Kickstart Exercises and Empower Parkinson’s), a community rehabilitation and support programme introduced in 2026.

Our Take

Many of the activities featured in Warrior 24/7 are so familiar that we rarely give them a second thought. Buttoning a shirt, holding a spoon or walking towards an MRT train are simply parts of our daily routines.

What makes this exhibition meaningful is its decision to use those ordinary experiences as a starting point for understanding a condition that remains unfamiliar to many people.

Rather than presenting Parkinson’s solely through medical information, Warrior 24/7 invites visitors to consider the human experience behind the symptoms.

Of course, spending a few minutes at an interactive station is not the same as living with Parkinson’s every day. The experiences are best understood as conversation starters rather than complete representations of the condition.

We particularly appreciate the inclusion of personal stories and caregiver perspectives, which remind visitors that people living with Parkinson’s have relationships, aspirations and identities extending far beyond their diagnosis.

For anyone interested in health awareness, caregiving or simply understanding the experiences of others, Warrior 24/7 offers a thoughtful opportunity to learn more.
