Just Had DX- What Help Can We Get?

[chinchi]

Some of you may have read my other post 'Will DS Ever Walk Or Talk' and know that my son was diagnosed with CP this week.

We are already claiming DLA at the lower care level, but wondered what else we may be entitled to?

I was given a Family Fund application pack, but not really sure what to apply for!!

I was also told it may be worth contacting those who pay DLA to inform them that we have a dx.

Any help would be great! Thankyou.

I've been browsing and it def different from area to area as to how they give it out.

example for leicester here

Sorry to OP, hopefully if you get carers, this will apply to you!
