Hi Leonard :)

This is also fantasic news and again like the blue badge gives a bit of indepence and freedom. It is such a fight to get awarded DLA and I have been on that road a few times. I wish you wellness and hope you get everything you need. Don't forget you now qualify for motability as you recieve higher rate mobility DLA. I got a power chair on lease and it's made a world of difference to me and hubby and our life.

Here's the link :)

You may also qualify for VAT free products from certain suppliers too for beds, chairs any equipment you may need etc.
