Disability living allowance take-up

As part of our Pounds for Parents campaign we are urging parents of disabled children to claim Disability Living Allowance, the major benefit available to meet their child’s additional needs.

Despite families struggling on below average incomes, up to 62% are not claiming Disability Living Allowance – a potential £109.50 each week.
