Who is this guide for?
This guide is for you if you are considering making a claim for disability living allowance (DLA), on behalf of a child under 16 years of age who has a brain related condition.
This includes conditions such as cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autistic spectrum disorders, learning difficulties, head injury, genetic syndromes, AD(H)D, degenerative diseases, behavioural and emotional problems or developmental delay.
Throughout this guide, for convenience, we refer to ‘your child’ but we are aware that many of the people using this guide will be doing so in a professional rather than personal capacity.
This is a general guide covering a wide range of conditions, all of which may vary in their severity, so not everything in it will apply to your child. But the methods we explain for doing things like: filling out the claim pack
getting supporting evidence
preparing for a medical
apply to anyone making a claim for DLA on behalf of a child.
