How can it be a good idea? All they want to do is cut even more of the benefits. who said CP is non progressive?

I can understand why changes have to be made, but I'm a little unsure of how it will affect me. I am lucky in the fact that I can work part time and volunteer to give me the best chance at getting the best possible job to suit me in the near future. I find my DLA and mobility allowance helps me with getting around and use it to buy specialist footwear and aids that I struggle to get on the nhs.
