Have you contacted SENDIASS? Or your local equivalent. They are excellent and will help

The pushing back of the assessment must be very frustrating, especially when the hold ups are out of your control. What could be useful is reaching out to the Mencap’s helpline at 0808 808 1111 or sending an email to helpline@mencap.org.uk for any advice on the process, the referrals, what to expect etc., I’m wishing you and your youngest the best of luck!
