Need a Repair? Your Local Authority Should Help — Here’s How

Did you know that if your local authority provides you with equipment to support your independence — such as mobility aids, specialist furniture, or assistive technology — they’re also responsible for any repairs and maintenance? 🛠️

That means you shouldn’t have to struggle with broken or faulty equipment on your own. If something stops working or needs servicing, you can request help directly from your local authority.

Not sure how to ask? We’ve made it easy for you!
AccessAva has a ready-made template letter you can use to request repairs or maintenance — saving you time and stress.

Simply visit 👉 www.accessava.org.uk and select “Equipment and adaptations.”

Empower yourself with the right words and the right support — because your independence matters. 💪
