How to apply

Apply through your local council.

The council may send an occupational therapist or trained assessor to see you. They’ll assess what changes you need to your home.

Your council must give you a decision within 6 months.

Help applying

The government funds an organisation called Foundations who can help you to apply.

Appeals

You can appeal to your council if you’re unhappy with their decision.

If you appeal and you’re still not happy, you can complain to the Local Government Ombudsman.
