Charitable donation
As a registered charity we rely on charitable donations to support our work, and we have always had incredible support from dedicated members of the public who fundraise for us.

Commercial support
Our partners are tremendous supporters of the BPA and ParalympicsGB through commercial sponsorship as well as their own fundraising activity. Our Official Partners provide invaluable support to ensure we can take the best prepared team to the Games and use the gold dust from the Games to deliver a better world for disabled people.
UK Sport
UK Sport is the Government agency responsible for investing in Paralympic (and Olympic) success. It distributes both National Lottery and UK Government exchequer funding to support the World Class Performance Programmes of National Governing Bodies, which are dedicated to identifying, developing, and supporting the training of athletes in the years leading up to the Paralympic Games. Full funding figures are available on the UK Sport website. We work very closely in partnership with the National Governing Bodies and other organisations that receive this direct UK Sport investment, however the funding to prepare and take the ParalympicsGB team to the Games is the responsibility of ParalympicsGB.
We do receive a restricted and ring fenced investment from UK Sport to support directly our athlete preparation programmes across each Paralympic four year cycle. This contributes to our overall ability to maintain a world leading Paralympic team, in particular through supporting athlete education programmes and for Rio 2016 included pre-Camps preparation and training camp in Brazil.
