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

There targets officially is 35 days but they can take upto 11 weeks.
I would estimate the 8 weeks might be a fair reflection because of the christmas and new year break.
As not only would the office staff will be away but so would your GPS and specialist's.

So yes 8-10 weeks would be my estimate.
Did you get any help with the forms?

hi i was awarded dla a week ago, it took 7 weeks from us getting their letter confirming they had recieved our claim same as the letter you have recieved, so it was about 9weeks from us actually posting the claim form to us being awarded and paid,we actually got the money in the bank before the letter.
