Where more works are needed, we may award a home safety grant of up to £3,000.
These grants are discretionary, and may be used for works such as:
- works to improve the safety of a disabled person, or their carers, where a Disabled Facilities Grant application is not needed
- minor repairs needed for vulnerable people where their health is at risk
- safety-testing in the home (electrical safety, asbestos) for disabled or vulnerable applicants
- contributing to the cost of works where multiple funding streams are being harnessed to resolve a situation
