Are there any grants available to replace an old fuse box?

I see a lot of grants are available at the moment for things like solar panels & free electric car charging points but I don't qualify because I still have an old style fuse box, not a modern consumer unit with trip switches.
What kind of grants might be available to have the box replaced?

I don't believe there are any grants for replacing consumer units. You'll have to pay for it yourself, I'm afraid.0

If it is a Wylex unit you can buy MCB's to replace the existing fuses. Not very expensive at all. Does not need an electrician to change them. I don't know about other makes of CU.I can afford anything that I want.
Just so long as I don't want much.0 -
Had ours changed by a local electrician for around £1800
