Benefit Information
If you are seriously struggling with mobility, you are entitled to claim for Disability Living Allowance regardless of whether or not you are still able to work. This can also be claimed for children.
If you need any help understanding which forms to fill out, how to fill them out or how to get them processed efficiently, you can phone Markwell House 686496 and ask for Adult Social Work. They should be able to advise correctly and will even come to your home if necessary. It is up to you and your family to fill out the forms. If you are alone, Crossroads Care can help too. It’s really worth having a look through these sites if you are struggling as there is potentially a lot of help out there.
