Improvements and repairs to your home
Home Improvement Agencies are not for profit organisations that
assist vulnerable homeowners or private sector tenants who are
older, disabled or on low income to repair, improve, maintain or
adapt their home. By improving people's living conditions, HIAs
enhance their quality of life and enable them to remain in their
home in greater comfort and security. They also offer a wide range
of services, providing advice to clients and have become involved
with many local authority schemes.
Please contact your local borough or
district council for information on Home Improvement Agencies,
