If you are disabled or simply just feeling the strain of your years, there may be physical barriers that make it difficult for you to carry out ordinary day to day activities.
An adaptation to your home will enable you to move around your home and access its facilities more easily and remain independent for longer. An adaptation will also make it easier for your carers to look after you.
Typical adaptations include:
- Ramps, rails and step lifts
- Stair lifts and through floor lifts
- Door widening and relocation of radiators for wheelchair access
- Adapting kitchens by providing low-level units and tailoring the kitchen to your specific needs
- Level access showers, wet rooms and other bathroom alterations
- Improving heating and energy efficiency measures
