About us

Who we are

Cure Parkinson’s (CP) was set up in 2005 by four people living with the condition. It has one bold aim – to cure Parkinson’s. CP funds innovative projects and inspirational scientists with the aim of building momentum towards a cure. We bring scientists together to improve communication and promote collaboration. We adopt a direct and ‘no nonsense’ approach to making an impact in the research arena. As our policies are shaped by people living with Parkinson’s, there is a refreshing passion, urgency and pride in everything we do.

 

What makes us different?


• We are focused exclusively on curing Parkinson’s
• We only invest in research projects that have the potential to move us closer to a cure
• We are working with people with Parkinson’s across the world so that the impact of treatments for Parkinson’s can be better measured and prioritised
• We have the skills, the ideas and the passion to create both UK and worldwide partnerships in our quest to cure Parkinson’s

 

“CP excels in identifying research needed in Parkinson’s and has a flexible approach to grant awards that avoids the delays and bureaucracy that impede progress. They have a refreshing approach in the search for a cure.”
Professor Peter Jenner, Neuroscientist

Our culture and values

We’re here for the cure!

 

Everything we do is to move us closer to our goal, of finding new treatments to slow, stop or reverse the progression of Parkinson’s. Your donations and your involvement in research will lead to the breakthrough we all want to see.

 

Curing Parkinson’s needs world-class collaborative science involving researchers, clinicians, the pharmaceutical industry and, most importantly, people who are living with Parkinson’s. This collaboration is at the heart of our research programme.

 

Our leadership and funding enables the world’s leading neuroscientists and neurologists to prioritise, together, the next generation of drugs for clinical trial. We’re acting with urgency, for people currently living with Parkinson’s, with a focus on research which has potential to translate into the clinic within five years.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Cure Parkinson's is committed to:

• supporting equality and diversity within our staff and wider team;

• developing a team which broadly reflects society and in which each individual feels respected and able to flourish; and

• preventing unlawful discrimination, including towards our supporters and members of the public.
