Home improvements
Home improvements make a real difference, improving the home environment and enhancing the quality of everyday life. Crucially, they help people to stay in their own homes when this might not otherwise be possible. Staff can advise and help with access to grants, funds and loans for building work. They can also give advice on welfare benefits and information about other support services in the community.
