Disabled Facilities Grants

We provide grants to adapt homes in order to help disabled people live more independently in their own homes. These grants can be used for;

• Building ramps
• Widening doors
• Installing stairlifts
• Adapting kitchens for wheelchair users
• Replacing baths with level access showers 

Yes. If you are on a low income, you may be eligible for a Disabled Facilities Grant.

To apply;

Please contact Adult Care Point - Tel: 01243-642121. They will arrange an assessment by an Occupational Therapist who will:

• See if your home can be adapted to meet your needs
• Tell you how to apply for a Disabled Facilities Grant if any structural work is needed

A referral will then be made to us and we can start organising the works. 

Yes. Instead of having your home adapted, you may wish to consider moving to a more suitable home.

Initially, you will need to be on our common housing register. Please visit the Apply for social housing page.
