What does it do?

Grants to fund adaptations for people with a disability are available to owner-occupiers, tenants or landlords. The purpose is to assist with the costs of making a home suitable to meet the needs of a disabled person.

You will need to complete a financial assessment form to confirm whether you are eligible for support. If you are, the types of funding available include:

The nature of the grant and the value will vary based on the works required and eligibility. We will advise on what is right for you.
