The quality of life of disabled people depends partly on resources accessible to them. In this study, the capital costs of disability are defined and quantified for disabled people aged 16-64 years, in relation to: their families, the estate, the level of disability, medical diagnosis, and income, for 173 people in the Harrow area on Social Services registers of very severe and appreciable handicap. Indicates the need for financial support, and the need to increase suitable available accommodation for disabled people; regular review may help to identify individual requirements and changing needs.
