Join Foundations on Tuesday 1 July for Foundations LIVE where we’ll be launching a new report looking at how handyperson services can fit mainstream bits of tech like Ring doorbells and Alexa. We’ve also got a new guide on home automations and how they can fit in with DFGs.

- An additional £86m was also announced on 3 January 2025 for the 2024-25 financial year.
