Grants/Funding for Disabled Adults for items such as assistive technology, computers?

Where can a person who is fully disabled find grants or funding for items such as assistive technology, computers, home improvements such as attic insulation, etc?

Is this person seeking grants for their assistive technology at home or in education?

There are a range of services and supports provided by a variety of sources - but you need to give more information on the needs of the person involved.

Is for example, the disabled person an older person, a child, a teenager, someone who has recently acquired a disability, or someone with a degenerative medical condition?

What is the nature of their disability - physical, mental, visual?

Are they currently in employment, or dependent on benefits? Or moving from in a residential care setting back home?

If you provide more information on your query, I can better advise. In the meantime, I suggest you obtain a copy of Comhairle's free booklet 'Entitlements for People with Disabilties' - available from your nearest Citizen Information Centre.
