Home Modification Grant: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to access funding for home accessibility renovations to help those with a care degree live more independently.
This grant provides financial support to help people make necessary changes to their homes to improve accessibility and ease daily living.
Who it's for
This scheme is for individuals who have been assigned a care degree and require specific adjustments to their living environment to stay mobile and safe.
What you get
You can receive funding of up to €4,000 to pay for renovations that make your home more accessible. This includes projects like installing walk-in showers or making other structural changes to help with daily movement.
What it costs you
While the grant covers much of the expense, you are responsible for providing official quotes from contractors to show the expected cost of the work.
The catch to know
You cannot start the renovation work before you have received official approval for the grant. If you begin construction before the approval is finalized, you may lose your eligibility for the funding.
How to apply
- Contact your care fund to discuss your specific needs.
- Obtain detailed quotes from professional contractors for the planned work.
- Submit your request and the contractor quotes for review.
- Wait for official approval before starting any construction.
