We are supporters of Foundations, the National Body for Home Improvement Agencies in England. Their website is a leading resource for Disabled Facilities Grants and has published our guide: ‘Making caseloads easier for Grant and Technical Officers…’
Funding
While the main source of funding for homelifts remains the Disabled Facilities Grant, there are a range of different avenues which can be explored. In this section, we talk about the options which can be called on.
Disabled Facilities Grants – a definitive guide for Healthcare Professionals
A DFG is provided by the local authority to install home lifts, stairlifts, ramps, accessible baths/showers and other accessible adaptions in the home. These are provided with the aim of enabling disabled adults & children to lead more independent lives whilst supporting families & carers.
