Adapting my bathroom

hi there. First time here. I have recently been awarded PIP with a 12 point assessment on mobility. I have a shower over the bath and can’t manage to use either it or the bath itself. Is there a grant I could apply for to help me adapt my bathroom? This is all a bit overwhelming for me and very new. Any advice would be much appreciated

Hi @hayleyp, and a warm welcome to the community!
It may be worth looking into a Disabled Facilities Grant. You can also have a needs assessment with your local authority to see if there's any additional support they can offer. Hope this helps you get started! -
Thank you this is all very new to me. ?
