There is a very useful benefit checker on the thread linked below ;
http://www.parentsofdisabledchildren.co....t-521.html It really is worth taking the few minutes to run the calculations and see what you may be entitled to claim as life is hard enough without struggling more than you have to money-wise  Apart from housing benefit you should be entitled to council tax benefit...... they are usually dealt with on the same council form and can also be backdated a certain ammount so check what you may be entitled to and see what can be claimed quickly

i am also on income support, tax creds ad rent paid, Sam gets meduim care DLA which entitles me to carers allowence, you should apply i think things are going get tight with the goverment so apply while you still can, my income support drops my £5 a week but carers allowence is £53 a week so worth losing that£5.
Good luck |

You can apply for CA online or ring up or go to your local job centre to pick up the forms x x
