Home adaptations to stay independent (Homelink)

Homelink is our home adaptation service that can help you stay independent.

Home improvement loans

The low-cost loan ranges from £1,000 up to £25,000. It can be used to fund essential repairs, improvements or adaptations to your home. 

The loans are provided by the Parity Trust, a not-for-profit organisation. Find out more about homeowner loans - Parity Trust.

To qualify for a subsidised loan, the works must be considered essential. For example, a leaking roof or electrical rewiring to make your home safe.

We will assess the requested works and let you know whether they qualify. A loan may also be available if you require additional funding for a disability adaptation.

The loan will be secured against your property. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or other debts secured against it.
