Funding to Help People with Parkinson's to Become & Stay Active (UK)

Community groups and organisations across the UK can apply for grants of up to £3,000 to help people with Parkinson's to become and stay active.

The funding, made available through the Parkinson’s UK Physical Activity Grants Programme, will support new activities that encourage people affected by Parkinson’s to participate in physical activity and sport or increase their participation in these areas.

This could be anything fun that encourages people, particularly those from isolated and ethnic communities, to get moving such as a walking group, a dance class, or playing table tennis.

Examples of what the fund will support include:

  • equipment
  • facility hire
  • maintenance of equipment
  • coaching fees
  • training
  • Parkinson’s specific online support
  • up to 10% of core costs

Applications can be made at any time until all of the funding has been allocated.
