Abacus to highlight DFG expertise at Foundations UK DFG Champions Roadshows

Experts in DFG-funded accessible baths, Abacus will be attending the DFG Champions Roadshows this Spring, organised by Foundations UK, so professional attendees can discover how to provide the latest specialist bathing solutions.

Contracted by the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, Foundations is the National Body for Disabled Facilities Grants and Home Improvement Agencies (HIAs) in England. Its annual conference series allows professionals from the housing and healthcare sectors, responsible for the provision of DFGs, to access both technical and practical expertise, alongside clinical guidance regarding specialist equipment provision.

Multi-award-winning Abacus regularly works with HIAs and LAs to provide power-assisted and height-adjustable baths for children and young adults living with restricted mobility. Its proven bathing range provides better outcomes for clients and their families in terms of safety, care and occupation.

At the Spring DFG Champions Roadshows, Abacus Product Assessment Managers will be available to discuss the benefits of bathing rather than showering for many people living with a disability, and how the purchase of an Abacus bath can be fully or partially funded as part of a DFG grant.
