Attendance Allowance Granted

[Chockie]

I have been successful in getting the full AA benefit. I am so pleased as I am finding each day more difficult, however the AA at least covers the Monthly cost of my Incontinence aids and a savings fund for an internal lift for when I am unable to go up the stairs.

So pleased for you getting these awards help so much with the costs of items. Some commissioning groups will cover the costs of some incontinence aids so it is always worth asking if your area is one of those. Hope you soon save enough money for your internal lift.x

Thank yu Rosewine even if they helped fund half I would be happy.

It is worth getting a Social Services disability assessment from your Local Authority as they fund adaptations like lifts and handrails etc. gov.uk/apply-home-equipment...
