Care and Repair Cymru is calling for a grant for emergency low income house repairs.

"I feel so safe now, just with those things and I hope they will take me right through that process of waiting for the operation and should help me when I'm recovering." "If there was a safety net grant from government, that would solve the problem much quicker. It would mean that our caseworkers can help more people."
"We see people who come to us because they have leaking roofs or penetrating damp or rotten windows and we are increasingly seeing more and more urgent conditions."
