» Published brief of changes to Disabled Facilities Grant Funding. Action Duchenne: "This month heralds a significant change in the way that national funding for disabled facilities grants is paid, and Care and Repair England have published their guidelines. This is aimed for those who, plan, commission and provide health, social care and housing related provision.

In short, instead of national government making direct payment to each local housing authority to help them to meet the cost of providing Disabled Facilities Grants, this allocation will, for the first time, be paid through Better Care Funds. These bodies will then pass on the allocation to the relevant Housing Authority.
