Claiming benefits
You may be entitled to disability benefits which you can use to pay for the support you need.
These benefits include:

If you're already in receipt of one of these benefits this will be taken into account when undertaking your financial assessment.
If you're not in receipt of one of these benefits but think you may be eligible, you can apply directly on the Government website www.gov.uk/browse/benefits/disability or you can have your benefits checked by the Citizens Advice Bureau - call 020 7247 1050 or email towerhamlets@eastendcab.org.uk .
