Disabled Facilities Grants are available to homeowners, owners of qualifying houseboats, owners of qualifying park homes, tenants of private landlords and tenants of housing associations.  Grants are also available for adaptations to the common parts of shared buildings.

The grants can also fund work to improve the homes of disabled children, and these are not means tested.

We work closely with housing associations to make sure they can help tenants remain in their own homes, and that they have policies and funds to complement our work in regards to adaptations or relocation.

Some of the types of changes the Disabled Facilities Grants could fund include:
- Work to aid entry and exit from a building, for example ramps
- Things to improve access inside the home, for example a stair lift
- Provision of accessible kitchen and bathroom facilities 
- Access to suitable sleeping facilities
