Announcement

Families who have children and young people with special needs very often deal with similar life styles. We have all had concerns ranging from education,acess to services,respite and other issues directly related to their childrens needs. Parents of disabled children bring families together for friendship, to share information and to support one another.

The forum was created by parents who have children with special needs and is run by parents so we are all in this together. With us you will realise you are not alone

Parents of disabled children launched in October 2009 and we are growing day by day and are fastly becoming a major support resource for all

2nd DLA appeal update
cheapsensorytoys
Well was at tribunal on 13th October (1st tribunal i won by unanimous decision, but DWP appealed it) this time i lost the appeal saying at the time of the decision which was (2 Nov 09) they dont think my son fitted the criteria for high rate mobility (He has high rate care and low rate mobility). This time there was a representative from the DWP who i found rather arrogant. I found this time very frustrating as i felt they didnt fully understand my sons diagnosis since its not so well regognised yet if they took time out to actually find out what it means and the affects it has on him, rather than guidelines for certain conditions after all medial conditions have different effects on each individual and the ones that are not in guidelines they should research fully through medical professionals rather than making general decisions. They have said i can apply for a supersession as the last year he has got worse but he turns 16 on 24th Oct so dont know if i should do a new claim under adult rules? or just wait till his award runs out in Oct 2012?

Sorry for the rant but just feel so frustrated!
