Disabled Bathroom Grants, Council Funded Support

What Is A Disabled Facilities Grant?

Local authorities offer grants to people with disabilities who want to make home improvements in order to help them move around their home more easily. This can include things like:

Widen doors and install ramps
Improve access to rooms and facilities – e.g., stairlifts or a downstairs bathroom
Provide a heating system suitable for your needs
Adapt heating or lighting controls to make them easier to use

Who Can Apply For Grants?

The residents of housing associations, private tenants and home owners may apply to the local council for a disability grant if they are disabled or anyone with whom they reside with is. Property owners with disabled tenants can also apply.

Am I Eligible?

You could be eligible if you are registered disabled or eligible to register as disabled, have a low income, and savings of less than £6000. On request, our knowledgeable team members will provide you with additional information.

How Do I Apply?

Your local council will help you apply for a disabled bathroom grant. Learn more and apply here.

What Happens Next?

Your local council should arrange for an Occupational Therapist to meet you at home before you make a decision.

If your application is accepted, please contact us and we will set up a meeting at your home to discuss your bathroom renovation options.

How Long Does It Take To Approve a Grant?

It is determined by the local council to which you apply and how long it takes them to process your application. On average, it takes 12 to 14 weeks, but more complicated installations can take longer.
