About this opportunity

The Lakeland Disability Support Fund provides grants to charitable groups and individuals with physical disabilities residing within the former local authority area of South Lakeland. The fund helps relieve disability by providing items, facilities, or support that enable individuals to live more independently and improve their quality of life. Priority is given to individual applicants over charitable groups. The fund supports a wide range of disability-related needs including mobility equipment, assistive technology, home modifications, and respite care. Applications can be made by beneficiaries directly or by someone acting on their behalf with consent, and must be supported by independent care professionals who are familiar with the applicant's disability.
