Adapting or improving your home

What does it do?

Adapting or improving your home

https://www.slough.gov.uk/living-independently/adapting-improving-home/1

Disability equipment and home adaptations can help you if you are disabled or an older person.

If you, or a member of your family, are having difficulty getting around your home due to a physical disability, sensory impairment or old age, you can request an occupational therapy assessment for equipment and adaptations to make it easier for you to live independently.

You must be a permanent Slough resident and have a disability which:

has lasted or is likely to last for at least 12 months and has no prospect of significant improvement

significantly affects your ability to carry out activities of daily living in the home, or imposes a burden on your carer or family.
