We are currently supporting around 90 groundbreaking Parkinson's
research projects totalling over £17million across England,
Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Our latest projects are tackling vital problems and pioneering
new treatments that will bring us closer to a cure for
Parkinson's.
We need to know how and why certain nerve cells in the brain in
Parkinson's die in order to find a cure.
We fund projects pursuing all avenues of research that work
towards new and better treatments for Parkinson's and a cure.
We also fund research studies that focus on improving quality of
life for people with Parkinson's.

How you can help
We are closer than ever to finding a cure, but we need your
help.
Our research is totally dependent on voluntary donations.
We need
people with and without Parkinson's to pledge their brains to
research. This precious tissue is essential to research studies all
over the world that are bringing us closer to a cure.
