Disabled Facilities Grants: Lincolnshire
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many households in Lincolnshire were successful in applications from the Disabled Facilities Grant in each of the last three years.
Answered by Alison McGovern
The total Disabled Facilities Grant allocation to Local Housing Authorities in Lincolnshire for the last three years is shown below.
Disabled Facilities Grant Allocation | |||
| 2023-2024 | 2024-2025 | 2025-2026 |
Lincolnshire | £7,585,253 | £8,656,686 | £9,265,453 |
This information is publicly available on the website of Foundations, the National Body for Disabled Facilities Grants and Home Improvement Agencies here: Disabled Facilities Grant Annual Allocations.
It is for local authorities to decide how to spend their allocation and deliver adaptations to eligible disabled and older people. Government does not hold data on how many households have received Disabled Facilities Grant funding.
This Government recognises how important home adaptations are in enabling disabled people to live as independently as possible in a safe and suitable environment. This is why we boosted Disabled Facilities Grant funding to £711 million for each of 2024-25 and 2025-26, with a further £50 million in year top up this year, bringing total funding for 2025-26 to £761 million.
