Disabled Facilities Grants (DFGs) are used to pay for work that is needed to help a disabled person live more independently in their own home.

You get a grant for essential adaptations to give you better freedom of movement into and around your home. It is also available for essential facilities in your home.

This could include work to:
- make it easier to get into and out of your home, for example by - widening doors or putting in ramps;
- make access easier to the living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom for example by putting in a stair lift or a floor lift;
- provide suitable bathroom and kitchen facilities such as over bath showers or replacing a bath with a level access shower;
- provide suitable kitchen facilities at wheelchair height so that you can use the facilities independently, including building new facilities if necessary;
provide or improve a heating system in your home;
- adapt heating or lighting controls to make them easier for you to use; or
- improve access and movement around your home so that you can care for someone who lives with you.
