The charity has reopened their popular Physical Activity Grants programme for the sixth successive year, supporting community groups, activity providers, and sports clubs to delivery programmes for those living with Parkinson’s through the UK.
Since its launch in 2021, the Physical Activity Grants programme has delivered £936,000 in funding for 392 new exercise projects across the UK, ranging from walking football and table tennis to Zumba and assisted rowing.
Roma Hashim, Physical Activity Grants manager at Parkinson's UK, said: “We’re incredibly excited to launch this year’s Physical Activity Grants Programme.
