We have had to prioritise our workload in the current economic downturn and this means that the availability of grants has been affected. This is the current position with the grants scheme:
- The Disabled Facilities Grants scheme continues to operate normally and is unaffected.
- Repair Grants also continue to operate and are unaffected.
- All approved grants applications will continue as normal.
- Applications for HMO grants are no longer being accepted.
- All Group Repair Schemes have been restricted and prioritised
Applications for discretionary grants including Renovation Grants, Replacement Grants, and Home Repair Assistance may only be approved in exceptional circumstances. Exceptional circumstances are deemed to exist where there is an imminent and significant risk to the occupier as a consequence of the condition of the dwelling.
Disabled Facilities Grants

Warm Homes Scheme
We are the contract administrator for the Warm Homes scheme. The scheme is funded by the Department for Social Development and is designed to help eligible households improve the energy efficiency of their homes. For further information, visit the Warm Homes website.
