so at the moment not only is my mobility poor, but now I have a shoulder injury and have to refrain from using it, as a wheelchair user and crutches user indoors how?

AND NOW THE REAL RANT!
so the government is scrapping DLA and replacing it with another benefit!
WHY?
probably so they can get round the fact that the lucky few of us that have a lifetime award and we cant have that can we!

I am starting to worry too, I have a lifetime award but have no idea what is going to happen, another interrogation my the gestapo no doubt... I had to go through three tribunals a lot of years ago, it took a lot out on me, I nearly gave up in the end.... x:evil
I just hope that they target the right people.. There ARE people out there playing the system and I really don't mind them catching them out, just hope they're going to do a good job.

Airwave!

Haven't seen the report on the DLA being scrapped, or was it a small 'leak' from deep inside a government office that gets to public prominence before being announced or forgotten? Whatever it be called, it will still do a similar job, it'll just be associated with the Coalition Government rather than PLP. Most of us won't notice any difference and maybe things needed changing slightly to reflect a better service that could be offered, not all changes are for the worst? Remember, we are the ones that are in charge, we own the vote!


x:)) Its a grin, honest!

I note that Santa hasn't got any shades, so I'll use this one for now.

Hi Zech

I have been thinking this for a while they have only been awarding 'indefinite' which is not as good as lifetime is it x:evil

Hope you will be ok with yours

Are they scrapping DLA for everyone who gets it?? My daughter gets Higher Level DLA and for all that she needs with that money I am not sure we could cope i.e. extra nappies on top of her 4 she is only allowed x:evil I heard them say this morning that she wont get a 'pay rise' next year but nothing about scrapping it
