Welcome to Scope 😊

A few suggestions.

You could approach your local council, who might have Household Support Funds available

https://www.gov.uk/cost-living-help-local-council

Or for a needs assessment (which includes equipment)

https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/social-care-and-support-guide/help-from-social-services-and-charities/getting-a-needs-assessment/

There might be a grant available via

Hey @ediemarie1 and a warm welcome to the community from me too!

I can see Kimmy has already given you some great links to check out, but I just wanted to stop in and say a quick hi. The Turn2Us grants search is very helpful and it's definitely worth checking with your local council.
