In 2022/23 the Department for Work and Pensions estimated that there were 16.1 million disabled people in the UK. That’s 24% of the population and a huge number. Scope reports that 32% of households in England include a person with a disability.
If you work with disabled people and their families, you will know that it can be hard to find activities and programmes that tackle social exclusion, loneliness and poor health. We would like to help make it easier.

Apply to access funds from The Health Lottery Foundation if you are a voluntary organisation that supports disabled people

We are interested in supporting voluntary organisations that specifically offer health and wellbeing programmes to disabled people. Equally, we would like to hear from projects that want to build inclusivity into their existing programmes by making adjustments to their approach. We will consider supporting organisation who are:
- Running programmes that promote fitness and physical activity for disabled people.
- Offering emotional support and counselling to disabled people and their families.
We would love to hear from projects that currently support disabled people and those who would like to improve what they can offer.
Please sign up to our mailing list to be alerted as soon as our grant window opens. We look forward to hearing about the vital work you are doing in your area.
