You can access our full Aids and Adaptations Policy here.

Once we receive the OT’s assessment, we will contact you to arrange for the work to go ahead through our subsidiary, West Wales Care and Repair. If there are any reasons why we cannot authorise the adaptation, we will contact you and discuss your options with you.
