Garden Estates

Is there anywhere that a disabled person can apply for help to have a car port built in their front garden?
Is there a scheme to pay the costs for this work for someone who owns their home but cannot afford to have the work done. My aunt lives on disability and incapacity benefit only following an accident. She cannot walk and relies on her mobility car to get out of her home. Excessive parking restrictions in her area have made it impossible to ensure a space near her home which makes her virtually housebound and dependant on others. There is room in her front garden with some adjustments but she cannot raise funds. I am not in position to help her financially. Is there a scheme or charity that helps with this sort of thing in the UK? If so how much of such a cost might they assist with?
She lives in an ex-council house on an estate. She tried council for marked bay which was approved but would have to be opposite side of road to my aunts house due to road layout and it needed her neighbours approval to go ahead. Sadly they refused which blocked the application.
Does your Aunt have a social worker? If so, get her to ask about Direct Payments.
Use these links for more information:
http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/DisabledPeople/FinancialSupport/DG_10016128
http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/DisabledPeople/FinancialSupport/DG_10016957
We have secured these for some of our clients.
Your Aunt will need to be assessed to see if she qualifies for help. This will be easier if she already has a Social Worker, but can still be arranged if she doesn't.
It might be a good idea to seek advice from a charity first, to see if it could be possible, of they know of anyone else who has received direct payments in these circumstances. Social Services in some areas aren't as up with what is allowed, as this is still a fairly new scheme. (I'd hate for you to be fobbed off, if you have a strong case)
Hope this helps.
I'm assuming your Aunt already has a disabled 'blue badge' but if not see this link:

Edible Estates $19.48 The Edible Estates project proposes the replacement of the domestic front lawn with a highly productive edible landscape. It was initiated by architect and artist Fritz Haeg on Independence Day, 2005, with the planting of the first regional prototype garden in the geographic center of the United States, Salina, Kansas. Since then three more prototype gardens have been created, in Lakewood, California; Maplewood, New Jersey and London, England. Edible Estates regional prototype gardens will ultimately be established in nine cities across the United States.Edible Estates: Attack on the Front Lawn documents the first four gardens with personal accounts written by the owners, garden plans and photographs illustrating the creation of the gardens--from ripping up the grass to harvesting a wide variety of fruits, vegetables and herbs. Essays by Haeg, landscape architect Diana Balmori, garden and food writer Rosalind Creasy, author Michael Pollan and artist and writer Lesley Stern set the Edible Estates project in the context of larger issues concerning the environment, global food production and the imperative to generate a sense of community in our urban and suburban neighborhoods. This smart, affordable and well-designed book also includes reports and photographs from the owners of other edible front yards around the country, as well as helpful resources to guide you in making your own Edible Estate. |

The Garden Book (Garden Design) $31.98 "The Garden Book" presents a diverse range of garden and landscape designers responsible for some of the most interesting and iconic gardens of all time from around the world. Gardens of Ancient Persia, the Moguls of India, and the palaces of Chinese Emperors sit side by side with contemporary gardens from the USA, Europe and Australia. Formal geometric Modernist gardens of France contrast with the traditional sweeping landscapes of the Romantic English country garden. Long-vanished wonders such as the mythical gardens of Babylon, Paradise and Eden are illustrated by artists' impressions and rare illuminated manuscripts. This volume presents 500 designers in an A-Z format that departs from the usual emphasis on genres and time periods, encouraging readers to contemplate the connections between gardens, social history and popular culture. The designers selected represent a broad variety of styles, structure and planting. Experts, as well as readers coming to garden history for the first time, should find many well-loved and familiar gardens, alongside many that are rarely explored in contemporary garden books. The gardens have beem selected in an effort to choose the appropriate work for key figures in garden design and which illustrates their influence on the traditions of gardening in many countries around the world. They range, therefore, from the palaces of kings to the all-consuming passions, bordering on obsessions, of amateur enthusiasts. Notable examples from countries with a strong tradition of garden design, France, Italy, Japan and China, as well as lesser known examples from the Pacific Rim, Poland and the Czech Republic, should complement some of the great estates of the UK and USA. In some cases, the designer has been responsible for a large number of gardens and often lesser known examples have been chosen for their importance in the development of garden design. Throughout history, the estates of the wealthy have often been where the major movements of garden design have taken place, and often the patron will develop the garden beyond what can have been expected by the original designer. Written in an easily accessible way, the text explains the chosen figure's role in the development of the garden, as well as the important changes to the garden over time. Each designer is represented by a full-page illustration, mostly in colour, of their most significant garden and an accompanying text that describes the image and discusses the type of garden and its role in the further development of the tradition. Each page includes cross-references to other designers working in a similar style, movement, or time period, as well as biographical information about the designer, and complete data on the garden reproduced. |

Lush new color photographs as well as a trove of historical images take readers beyond the front gates for an exceptional, never-before-seen view of the mansions, grounds, and gardens of these sumptuous estates, and tell the history of Los Angeles' rise from rugged paddocks and farmland to famed metropolis. Each house is explored both for its historical and architectural importance, for here are the epitome of residences and gardens reflecting the famed Italianate and California Mediterranean styles by all the leading architects of Southern California, including Wallace Neff, James Dolena, Gordon Kaufmann, Robert Farquhar, Roland Coate, and Paul Williams. They built for clients whose own stories reflect the intrigue and foibles of Hollywood society (What rich widow built one of the greatest estates, only to lose everything because of non-stop parties and gambling? Which major Hollywood star secretly took nearly 100,000 photographs of nude starlets including young Marilyn Monroe at his estate?). The book¿s final chapter, "Gone But Not Forgotten," pays homage to great estates that have been destroyed or lost to history. |

Federal Income Taxation of Trusts and Estates $64.48 Federal Income Taxation of Trusts and Estates: Cases, Problems, and Materials examines the income taxation of estates and trusts, estate and trust beneficiaries, and trust settlors; its emphasis is on the provisions of 'Subchapter J'; the relevant portion of the Internal Revenue Code (sections 641 through 692) and its first priority is to give readers an understanding of those provisions and how they work. The book takes four distinct, but integrated, approaches. At the beginning of each section, Ascher and Danforth present assignments of carefully selected provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Regulations. Following are one or more precedents (cases or rulings) dealing with the topic at hand, accompanied by textual material that amplifies the topic by further analysis of the primary precedents, presentation of other precedents, or discussion of subsequent developments. Finally, numerous problems, where appropriate, allow the reader to apply the material to common fact patterns.The third edition brings the book completely up to date, and includes all relevant developments since the preparation of the second edition. Among the many important additions are the decision of the United States Supreme Court in Knight v. Commissioner, which just this year held that investment advisory fees paid by a trustee are subject to the 2% haircut under section 67; Mattie K. Carter Trust v. United States, in which the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas held that it is not merely the activities of the trustee, but also those of the trustee s employees, that count toward the material participation requirement under the passive activity rules of section 469; and full incorporation of the trust accounting income regulations recently finalized by the Treasury. The third edition includes a number of new or revised problems, and it trims some materials relating to estate planning techniques that are now obsolete. |
