Hi All,

But has anyone had any success in getting the DFG or having minor adaptions in the house.

I would need to have rails and prehaps a small wet area in my bathroom, as my current mental health and Autism are making it very difficult for me to currently use them plus there's damp which increases my anxiety further.

I would be assessed by an OT but my local council has trained their OTs in Autism yet, so there may be problems with this.

 

Anywho, any advice?

  • i don't know what the dfg is. is it something to do with the government? but yes. i asked the council for a walk in shower last month and they came to assess me. they said no problem, you can have one. i'm now on a waiting list but they say it will take 12 months until they are able to do it because of the demand.
