Help towards the cost of adaptations
You might be able to get a grant for the changes you need for your home.
You need to contact Kent County Council (KCC) for a needs assessment.
If KCC decides that you do need an adaptation they will refer you to us and let us know what you need.
A housing officer from our team will visit you to check you are eligible for a grant, make sure your home is suitable, and let you know what happens next.
