My parents are not well enough to fast during Ramadan. Can I give the Kaffarah to a relative? Should it be given at the end of this month, or can this year's Kaffarah be given during the course of the year before the next Ramadan?

Bismihi ta'āla
It is not kaffarah that they pay. It is fidyah, which is 750g of certain food items, per day. You can give it to a relative, if they are needy, and it can be given at any time.
And Allah knows best
