Adaptations to your home

Mossbank can help you access the equipment and adaptions you need to live independently in your home.

Who can help?

We refer all the adaptations applications we receive to the social care & health department at your local authority. They are responsible for providing equipment to help residents who need assistance for daily living in their own home and will arrange a professional assessment by an occupational therapist. They can help any resident with a physical or mental disability or visual or sensory impairment.

Your Community Support Officer can help you by filling in a referral form on your behalf and sending it to Mosscare’s supported housing team who will process it through the local authority.

What happens next?

We will continue to monitor the process and your satisfaction until the adaptation is completed.

Please note that minor adaptations will be funded by Mossbank Homes subject to available budget. We are committed to providing as much help as possible to allow you to live independently in your home. There are many ways your home can be adapted to make life easier. Here are some examples:

  • Lever taps
  • Grabs rails
  • Sensory equipment
  • Walk-in showers
  • Stairlifts

If you would like any more information, please contact your Community Support Officer on: 0161 474 8340.
