The Housing Adaptation Grants for Older People and People with a Disability scheme facilitates older people and people with a disability to remain living independently in their own homes. Housing for All commits to undertaking a review of the range of housing grants available to assist with meeting specific housing needs both for our ageing population and people with a disability which includes a review of the existing grant limits and income thresholds applicable to the grant schemes. This review is being undertaken this year.
