Equipment and changes to your home

If the assessment shows your child could be helped by specialist equipment or adaptations to your home, then an occupational therapist will arrange to visit you.

During the visit, they will carry out an assessment to see which equipment and adaptations could help.

What happens next depends on which kinds of equipment and adaptations you'll need and how much they'll cost:

Adaptations and equipment under £1000

Adaptations that are under £1000 are funded by us.

Adaptations and equipment over £1000

For adaptations that total over £1000 you'll need to apply for a Disabled Facilities Grant. 

The occupational therapist will go through the application process with you.
