I need a shower as I cant use the bath. Can I get help in fitting a shower at home?
If you can't manage your bath, help may be available. An occupational therapist can call to offer advice. If you own your home, you can apply for a Home Improvement Grant.

As a council or housing association tenant, how can I get a housing adaptation?
Permanent and temporary adaptations can be installed following an assessment of need and a recommendation made by a member of the Occupational Therapy/Health team. You do not have to pay for adaptations recommended by occupational health.
