Get inspired by our Fundraising Heroes

Our supporters play a vital role raising funds and awareness for us, and continue to prove that no matter your age or ability you can help make a difference to those living with Parkinson’s.

To say thank you, each month we publish a Fundraising Heroes story all about the inspiring challenges and events some of you have undertaken. Click the button below to read all about our recent Fundraising Heroes and get inspired to get involved!

We also celebrate an exceptional fundraiser who has gone above and beyond to raise funds and awareness for us with our annual Fundraiser of the Year award! Nominations for 2023’s Fundraiser of the Year are now closed and the winner will be announced on World Parkinson’s Day (11 April 2024). Nominations for 2024’s Fundraiser of the Year will open later in the year.

If you’ve been raising funds for us recently, we would love to feature your story! Email us with your photos and we’ll do the rest.
