Practical step-by-step guide

Make the home easier to access

A practical planning guide: questions to ask and documents to organise. Follow the linked canonical service records for sources, criteria and current application routes.

Practical next steps

  1. List the access problems with the person who will use the space: entrance, stairs, bathroom, bedroom or safe movement.
  2. Ask an appropriate professional to assess needs before choosing equipment or building works.
  3. Check whether the request concerns small maintenance, disability-adaptation funding or assistive equipment; these are different routes.
  4. Ask the Housing Authority about technical advice, ownership or tenancy permissions and approval before spending.
  5. Ask for the required quotations, plans, professional reports and application steps.
  6. Check responsibility for personal contributions, installation, maintenance and any permissions.
  7. Do not assume a quotation, assessment or application means a grant has been approved.
