Health and Safety Assistance
If you do not have enough spare equity in your home and are not eligible for a Home Appreciation Loan we can give you a grant of £5,000 to deal with essential repairs and improvements. This grant is not repayable.
We will always consider whether you can get a Home Appreciation Loan first, before deciding whether you can have a grant.
You can find more information about the help that the Council gives with home repairs and improvements on our frequently asked questions page.
