Make a monthly donation
Setting up a monthly donation is a great way to make a difference to the lives of people with Parkinson's.
A regular donation means we can plan ahead. It means we can invest in long term research projects to deliver the next new treatment in years not decades. We can also continue to make a difference now, supporting everyone living with Parkinson's.
Will you set up a monthly gift? Choose to donate to one of three key areas supporting Parkinson’s below:
Choose an area of our work to fund
Your monthly donations will go to an area of our work where it is needed most and will make the greatest impact.
Help fund our pioneering research programme supporting researchers across the world in the hunt for better treatments and a cure.
Your monthly donations will help fund our health and care services. Allowing us to help people live well with Parkinson's and support the next generation of Parkinson's healthcare professionals.
Donations so far have helped fund vital research that has delivered groundbreaking discoveries, new medications and better care. Your monthly gift will fund researchers across the UK and the world, working on pioneering projects that could slow, stop or reverse Parkinson's.
Your gift will also help support every Parkinson’s journey, every step of the way. We offer support for people with Parkinson’s, their families and carers online, over the phone and through our amazing local advisers.
We know you're as dedicated to improving life for everyone with Parkinson's as we are. And we'll make sure we keep you informed about what your generous gifts have achieved with updates throughout the year.
Ray's story
Ray had problems with his shoulder all his life before he was diagnosed with Parkinson's at 56.
"I've never tried to hide my diagnosis. A lot of people that I told would say they knew somebody who had it, and that they seemed to be alright. And a lot of people still saw it as I might just have a bit of the shakes in a few years time. People knew as little about it as I did, basically. There were a lot of stories and half-truths."
Ray has thrown himself into his hobbies and loves his music, seeing it as an escape.
"I keep thinking that there's a real possibility to bring other people with Parkinson's in on this and let them share in the creative process."
Ray has also taken part in research projects, some in the form of surveys during lockdown and some doing practical things like imagining actions to do when freezing or having trouble walking.
"A cure is all I think about. I'm really hopeful, with some of the recent developments, and I can see that with things like stem cells, there's a real opportunity. I just keep thinking that I've got to keep fit long enough to benefit from it!"
Donate monthly
A gift of just £10 could pay for a DNA collection kit. This can determine a specific change in the genes associated with Parkinson's, opening avenues for new treatments in the future.
