Private Sector Housing Assistance Policy

The Private Sector Housing Assistance Policy relates to mandatory and discretionary grants that are provided by Adur & Worthing Councils in accordance with set criteria.

The Housing Assistance Policy describes the grants available from the Councils through their Private Sector Housing team, together with details about the type of works covered by these grants. You can also check in this policy whether you are likely to be eligible for one of these grants and whether the form of assistance you would like to apply for is means tested (statutory test of resources).

Please note that these grants take time to process.

Adur & Worthing Councils offer the services of a home improvement agency, Adur & Worthing Home Improvement Assistance (AWHIA), to assist with the grant process, especially in respect of disabled adaptations. They will visit your property after applying to help with forms and to obtain quotes. See also:
