Tendring District Council : Housing Grants Team
Tendring District Council's Housing Grants Team provide assistance to those needing Disabled Facilities Grants and other forms of grant help for adaptations such as ramps and stairlifts. We provide means tested grants to homeowners of residential dwellings, including caravans & houseboats, for essential repairs to prevent serious harm in the form of an Essential Repairs Grant. If you are a homeowner and need help with Housing Disrepair, such as replacement boilers or roof repair, we may be able to assist you directly if your health is being affected.
