FUNDING: Parkinson’s Physical Activity Grants – apply by 30 Nov

Community groups and organisations across the UK can apply for small grants to help people with Parkinson’s to become and stay active.

The funding of up to £3,000 is for new activities that encourage people affected by Parkinson’s to participate in physical activity and sport, or increased participation in these areas.

This could be anything fun and enjoyable that encourages people, particularly those from isolated and ethnic communities, to get moving such as a walking group, joining a Parkinson’s boxing class, or playing ball games.

It can be used to cover costs such as equipment, facility hire, maintenance of equipment, coaching fees, and training.

The closing date for applications is 30 November 2023.
