Thank you for your help 😀

Hi, I am just looking for some advice MR 15/09, my daughter’s award due tomorrow, I can see it pending but is £10 more. Does anyone know what this could be ? Thanks

I believe its the £10 Christmas bonus given around this time of year.

We are currently waiting for an app for genetics,an early autism diagnosis through the hospital as she’s under 5 I had Honestly not even heard of pica until the midwife mentioned it to me

He already has ASD diagnosis, global development delay and hyper mobility, severe speech delay.
Health visitor referred him to the community paediatrics and salt at his 2 year check. We was seen by both really fast within a few months.
He was 3years 6months when he got his asd diagnosis.
He 4 now and he saw the education phycologist recently they say developmentally he's 2.
Now we waiting for his final Echp.

Hiya have you heard anything yet xx

Wow this is so speedy. Hopefully they've got more staff working to clear up the MR pile before Christmas. Wishing you all the best 🥰

Hi nope I haven’t yet, think I will call tomorrow afternoon. X

So glad your getting support for him a awnsers I’ve seen lots of family’s who are struggling to get help my daughter is 3 we’re currently on waiting list for a sen school and ehcp is in progress

@Kirsty3kids have you heard anything. Im sure you said yours was with a dm a week or so ago.

Does anyone know what this means please my anxiety is taking over with dread x

I think they will want to ask you some questions to do with your child's claim to help them make a decision

Hello, I have done my daughters first renewal. She was prescribed medication yesterday but I'm unsure if I can phone and ask them to add this information on to her renewal or would I need a change of circumstances form this close to the end of the renewal? Thanks

I rang them the last week and told them about my daughters new medication on a new claim and they just added a note onto the system. I called using option 4. It might be different for renewal but its worth a try 😁

Nope nothing have you think it’s going to be a long wait by the looks of it x

Thank you, I'll call tomorrow then and see what they say

Yeah it was got to wait now as they are contacting the school could be 7 to 10 days or 4 weeks depending on the school 😪

What date was yours x

Good luck with everything.
We have my sons draft Echp, now waiting on the final plan and to see which of the special needs school he will attend.
I hate hearing about people waiting so long for the support their children need.
Its not fair on the children or the family.

28th August Nc x

Is there any April coc still waiting ? X

I called DLA and they made a decision on 14/11 regarding my sons MR for his mobility but they can’t tell me over the phone if it was successful 😬

Was it with a dm then? Id call to see if there has been an update. But then again i am a very impatient person and the anxiety gets to me.
