    Hi Joey.

    Your gran should be able to put in for a grant from her local council. They will send someone out to visit her and they will assess what she needs doing.
    They can give help for things such as a new roof, kitchen, bathroom, windows ect... Anything she needs to keep her home up to standard. There are some rules, but, you'll be able to check it all out on the council website.
    They lend you the money to do the work and you pay it back when the house is finally sold. Hope this helps.

    Angie

    The work done by Staying Put was financed by a grant so there was nothing to pay back but it was limited to, I think, £6000's of work so they did the most urgent work.
