The fund offers grants of up to £20,000 to support healthcare in Peterborough and the area covered by Peterborough and Stamford hospitals (postcodes PE1 – PE11). The fund supports both individuals requiring medical equipment and organisations who carry out healthcare activities.

Applications for grants to assist an individual should be made by an occupational therapist or other medical professional who has knowledge of the individual’s overall health and financial position.

Requests will be considered for money towards a piece of equipment or a small adaptation to a home to help an individual with their disabilities.
