The Handyperson Financial Benefits Toolkit uses evidence on the outcomes and benefits of handyperson services and similar interventions to demonstrate the financial benefits of investing in handyperson services locally. It uses an approach to estimate the benefits of social policy interventions that has previously been used in a number of areas including the Supporting People Financial Benefits Model.
The tookit was commissioned by the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG).

We have also produced a Frequently Asked Questions document to help you get started.
If you wish to use the toolkit as part of creating a business case you are strongly encouraged to contact your local Handyperson Co-ordinator or member of the Foundations team who can offer support by telephone, email or in person.
