Re: Hyndburn Homes - shower install

not sure exactly how they fund it in hyndburn but in blackburn with darwen it is done through a disabled facility grant which is means tested... they would never agree to a shower over bath as the disability that requires a shower would not allow you to be able to manage a bath anymore... They are quite strict on their criteria but I cannot say for certain exactly what that criteria is..

hope it goes well, but there can still be a very long wait for the alteration to be done after the decision, but that is usually down to how much money is in the disabled adaptation pot and what priority they put on the work being done.

In blackburn the priorities are being reviewed at the moment.

but as a guidline

P1 - access to toilet
P2 - access to bathing
P3 - access to property
