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

Hi.

Really pleased for u. Ring HMRC (tax credits office) and let them know ur child has been awarded high DLA care and u shud receive the severe disability premium of Child Tax Credit. You shud currently be receiving the disability premium of CTC (if u receive Tax Credits) - for children on any rate of DLA, but if ur child receives high DLA Care, then u will get the additional SDP (severe disability premium) and MAKE SURE u ask them to backdate it to the date of the new DLA award, and then double check this when ur award notice arrives (so u r looking for the disability premium and severe disability premium on ur new award notice)...
