Housing and Disabled People
If you have a disability you may have special housing requirements that help make life easier. You may also be entitled to extra financial help to enable you to live independently. There are several organisations that work to ensure that your needs are met.
The Disabled Living Foundation provides equipment, advice and information. Visit their website or call their helpline on 0845 130 9177 for more information.
Contact the housing department at your local Council to find out what modifications you are entitled to, and to apply for them to be installed.
