This is a specialist service offered where your local occupational therapist's training and scope of practice cover housing assessments — check availability for your area on the county page.

Housing stock in and around Biddulph varies enormously, so a housing needs assessment always starts with the specific property, not a generic standard. Your local occupational therapist visits the Biddulph property in question to assess it properly.

What to expect in Biddulph

  • A full walk-through assessment of the property against the person's needs
  • Identifying what could be resolved by adaptation versus what genuinely requires a move
  • A clear, professional written report suitable for sharing with a housing provider
  • Practical next steps agreed with you before the visit ends

Who this helps

  • People whose current home no longer suits their needs
  • Families considering a move and wanting an independent, professional view
  • Housing associations and landlords needing an OT assessment to support a decision
  • Anyone preparing evidence for a housing or adaptation funding application
