Financial Assistance Policy For Independent Living

DFG Calculated contribution Grant

19.1. A grant of up to £6,500 towards a calculated means test contribution for a Disabled Facilities Grant.

9.2. Applicants for a DFG who have a calculated means test contribution will automatically be awarded this grant.

9.3. Awards will be a maximum of £6,500 or the full amount of a calculated contribution if less than £6,500.

9.4. If the cost of the works is less £6,500, the calculated contribution grant will cover the full cost of the works required.

9.5. Only one DFG Calculated contribution grant will be awarded for each Occupational Therapist recommendation.

i.e. if the OT recommendation is for a level access shower and a stairlift and an applicant chooses to only take up the stairlift at that time, but at a later date decide to proceed with the level access shower, they will only be able to apply for whatever money (if any) remains from the £6,000 limit.

9.6. There are no repayment conditions for this grant.
