benefit of the public.

We do this by supporting education and research in physiotherapy to benefit

  • physiotherapy patients to improve their quality of life
  • persons (professionally qualified or not) providing paid or voluntary care to any person in need of physiotherapy

We also promote research and its dissemination to the wider public.

Our background

‘PPEF is a charitable
trust dedicated to
making a difference
in physiotherapy’

Image Panel

We offer grants to fund post-graduate education and research into physiotherapy that will benefit patients and the public, supporting those giving care to anyone in need of physiotherapy. Grants are awarded three times a year to individuals and organisations.

PPEF was founded in 2001 as a Registered Charity and a Limited Company. The Charity owes its formation to its benefactor Kenneth Balfour who wished to leave a large part of his estate to the Organisation of Physiotherapists in Private Practice, the OCPPP; (the previous name of Physio First). PPEF awards grants widely within the physiotherapy profession to applications that fall within its objects. PPEF also works closely with Physio First but is independent from that organisation.  You can view our statement about our relationship with Physio First here. Read More

Our Membership

Becoming a PPEF member

Membership of a charity such as PPEF can bring real benefits both to the work of the charity and for society in general. When a charity’s members are active in shaping the agenda and objectives of their charity, the trustee body is refreshed and its accountability to its members is improved.

Membership is a common governance model in the Charity sector. Its popularity looks likely to continue – The Charity Commission estimates that approximately 80,000 charities have a membership structure.

Help to Shape your profession

Their research indicated that charities with members overwhelmingly saw the role of membership as positive, with 84% of charities with individual members and 81% with corporate members stating that their members made a useful contribution to the running of the charity.
