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

I have just heard about it on the radio and haven't had a chance to look into it properly yet, previously, usually children are exempt from this sort of thing BUT I haven't seen how the new system will work. /ive us until after the school run and I'm sure dan will be able to update you all fully on how the budget entirely will affect us all Smile xx

The BBC says:

The government will also introduce a medical assessment for Disability Living Allowance from 2013 for new and existing claimants.

So that's everyone from 2013, new and existing claimants, whether the children and adults have the same assessment, I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens on that one.

it sounded to me it was more about getting disabled people who can be back at work so based on that im assuming Children are not included i could be wrong tho
