Apply for a Disabled Facilities Grant
You may not get any funding if you start work on your property before we approve your application.
To apply for a Disabled Facilities Grant, contact us online and ask for an occupational therapist to visit and talk with you about what would help.
If you were previously unsuccessful or have already had adaptations and things have become more difficult, you can request a new assessment.
If your request is for a child under 18, call us on 01202 127 773 or email ot.bso@bcpcouncil.gov.uk.
Alternatively, you can call us on 01202 123 654 or send a letter to:

You can also get help contacting us if you are deaf or hard of hearing.
