The UK Government Has Allocated £2 Billion of Home Improvement Funding

What does this mean?

It means some homeowners can receive up to £10k of home improvements.

Who is eligible?

Everyone is eligible for up to two-thirds of the costs, capped at £5,000. However, if you’re on income support, you are eligible for vouchers of up to the value of £10,000.
