Finding your council’s housing and home adaptation support

What support might be available?

Housing assistance can combine benefit support, local council funds and home adaptation grants. The appropriate authority depends on your postcode and housing situation.

How to get started

Find your local council, explain the housing need and request the current assessment and application route. If adaptations are needed, ask about a Disabled Facilities Grant before works begin.

Important to know

Local funding and eligibility are assessed individually; avoid starting works before confirming the grant process.
