Point North Neurological Wellbeing Fund

Grants of up to £1,000 from Point North's Neurological Wellbeing Fund for people of any age with a diagnosed long-term neurological condition in County Durham, Darlington or the Tees Valley, to pay for specialist equipment, therapy and training that make everyday life easier. Applications must be made by a referrer such as a frontline worker, careers adviser, social worker or a support worker from a charity, housing association or public body. Adaptive equipment, communication devices and software, speech, occupational and behavioural therapy, and activities that keep people connected can all be funded; home adaptations, statutory items and past purchases cannot. There is no fixed deadline, so you can apply at any time while funds last.
