Mali Jenkins Help Fund
Our Mali Jenkins Help Fund provides one-off grants
to people with Parkinson's.
I would never have been in a position to buy it [the bed] myself. I know it will help me so much.
The aim of the fund is to give financial assistance towards
equipment, adaptations and respite breaks that will improve quality
of life.
It is named after Mali Jenkins, our
founder
