    Yes and really think £80 per parent still cheaper then over price they charge during the holidays and children in primary school or Sen kids can learn a lot from going on holiday with their parents and never did us any harm as a child .

    Is it required to send peadatric diagnosis report along with dla form?

  • @Townsendadventures
    @Townsendadventures6 ай бұрын

    If you got it yes if not I would get a copy as it very useful . On the form make sure you say everything you do for your son care needs. It not hard on diagnose it based on care needs for care and mobility there a part in it which many don’t know about but if you say again what your care needs are for your son and if he has any behaviour issues . So my son can sit down on the floor and refuse to move so we have a special need buggy for him now. I write everything down . I will do an update video for you I think where I show this as it can be very helpful . When you have to send it in for ?

  • @Townsendadventures
    @Townsendadventures6 ай бұрын

    @yasmeenlorenzo-tl4ne if you word it right and you have that support from doctors and other professions she should get DLA middle or high. If you do everything for her dress her, support her brushing teeth and personal care including at night you should get high care and I think again high mobility she has a buggy for her safety reason and that in it self will show she has high needs . Hope that helps . With children with high needs it likely you get high care but I will say filling the form in has to be truthful and if you like she may do this or that just put it down as we can’t say when they will run off or have a melt down in middle of street so best to write all what you experience with her . Be confident in what you right but truthful and if you not sure ask for profession help as when my son was little we did as I didn’t know what to say but she help me to understand the system . Hope that helps
