The Mobility Aids Grant Scheme provides funding for the supply and installation of mobility aids in the home to address mobility issues caused by age or disability. Eligible works include: grab rails and handrails, access ramps, stairlifts, level-access showers, and other minor works to improve mobility and safety. The maximum grant was increased from €6,000 to €8,000 and income thresholds were raised by 25% under the revised Housing Adaptation Grants scheme. The scheme is means-tested and administered by your local authority, and can cover up to 100% of approved costs. Grants depend on local authority funding, so check your county's current position.
Older people or people with a disability experiencing mobility difficulties in their home. Means-tested — household income limits apply. Apply through your local authority.
