At Care & Repair, we try to help everyone needing work to their homes, to maintain their independence and well-being, whatever their income and resources.
As part of our holistic assessment, we will do a benefit check to ensure you are getting all the income to which you are entitled. This may be very important, as receiving benefits can ensure you are eligible for help with the cost of work to your home.
We may also have some resources to help with the cost of minor repairs, security, heating, and energy- efficiency measures.
Adaptations may possibly be subsidised or covered by a Disabled Facilities Grant from the Council.
Information on this is supplied separately.
If you are not eligible for financial help through a grant, we can still help you with the process of getting work done.
