How does the service work?

1

Free Home Visit

Our trained Equipment Officers visit your home. They'll chat with you, understand your needs, and recommend the best equipment for your home.

2

Free Loan & Installation

We install the equipment for you. You can use it for free, for as long as you need.

3

Ongoing Support

If there's a problem later, we help with repairs, advice, or replacements.

Do you need to pay?

If you live in Bristol, most equipment is completely free — funded by Bristol City Council.

If you live outside Bristol, don't worry — you can buy equipment from us, or we can signpost you to your local service.

Fire safety help too!

We can refer you to Avon Fire Service — they offer free home visits, give safety advice, and install the right fire equipment to keep you safe.

Tell a friend!

Know someone who could benefit? We can send you leaflets. We're happy to give free talks and live demonstrations at community groups, centres, or events.
