I've been classed as disabled now for a year and awarded pip low mobility and high daily living. I had to give up work and my wife works part time. I'm feeling so vulnerable and alone at the minute but cant seem to find any help my clothes are tattered my mood is low and my 6 year old daughter is noticing things aren't right. She's asking when we can have days out and go to parks and all the things a six year old wants to have but I'm so financially and emotionally drained I don't know what to tell her any help or ideas anyone x

Hi @perkypirate welcome to the community, Im sorry you are having such a tough time. Take a look at the parents and carers category, you can also look at the grants page here.
It's really tough, are there any local groups near to you that offer support?
