grants/funds available for development of a local learning disability care home

Good morning I have just joined the forum and I would like some advise about current grants/funds available for development of a local learning disability care home. Please help and have a good day.

I'm afraid I'm not an expert in setting up care homes, but I'd love to know more about what you're planning?
There are grants out there available to charities - are you going to be a charity? Funding Central lets you search for available grants:

Many homes are funded by local authorities - there's some info on how this works here:

And then of course there's your own fundraising that you might be able to do - both from the general public and hopefully a few local philanthropists!
Alex thanks again for your insight it is much appreciated.
Bless!
I have just just joined the forum and posted a question about how to shape and develop services in my local area for adults with learning difficulties. As the parent of a young man who is entering adulthood I am interested to know more about what your care home offers, your vision for developing services and how you got involved.
Best wishes
