First port of call .... your LA.
Carers Assessment through their SS section.
I assume that both you and your son receive all benefits / allowances currently payable ?
Under the old system or through Universal Credit ?
GP practice ... dedicated carers point of contact therein ?
As for your son , have you made contact with his specific supporting organisation for guidance and advice ?
Just a few observations to point you in the right direction.
