Are you eligible for financial support for home improvements?
As well as being home repair and adaptation specialists We Care can also provide you with information about possible financial support available to you for making improvements to your home.
You could be eligible for a low cost loan funded by your local council. We work in partnership with Bristol City Council and Bath and North East Somerset Council who fund a loan scheme which is administered by Lendology CIC, a Social Enterprise.
The team at Lendology CIC understand the expense of maintaining your home and work with you, and ourselves, to take the stress out of funding repairs, improvements or adaptations.
Their knowledgeable team of advisers will guide you through the process of applying for a home improvement loan, assess your eligibility, how much you could borrow and the loan best suited to your circumstances.
The Home Improvement Loan Scheme fund works such as*:
- Replacement Boilers
- Central Heating Installations (Gas, Oil, LPG, Electric, Calor Gas, etc)
- Roofs
- Thatch Roofs

* The work supported will depend on your local council’s policy and approval.
