DLA is awarded primarily on what your Care and/or Mobility needs are, the condition causing those needs is secondary. Check out the DLA Guides in the Members Section to see more detailed information on this benefit.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi Libby. Gareth is correct ther are excellent guides on this site, If you are still receiving hospital treatment why dont you call in at the Welfare Rights Office at your hospital. The majority of hospitals have them. Good Luck
