Funding

The funding is intended to help more people with Parkinson's from marginalised communities to get active and to engage in local physical activity classes. The funding is for any innovative new projects that will help marginalised Parkinson's communities who are not currently accessing physical activity opportunities and local authorities with the highest levels of deprivation indicated by the Index of Multiple Deprivation in the UK (2019).

This programme is aimed at registered charities, CICs and CIOs which are led by and working for Deaf and Disabled people. Your organisation will work directly with Deaf and Disabled people over the long term to support them to have more choice and control over their lives, access their rights and entitlements, and challenge the barriers they face.

The trust makes grants to a wide range of charitable organisations and the trustees' preference is to support registered charities in the north west of England for mental health and mental disability projects where expertise in this area and financial stability can be demonstrated. While not excluding large UK-wide charities, the trust normally only makes grants to such organisations where there are strong relationships in the north west of England and the proposal has the potential to achieve a substantial impact.
