Thank you Poppy for being there over the weekend when we are not!
Walker, as you'll see you should be able to get some help if you are on an income-based benefit such as income-based ESA. If not, it's possible you can also get help by completing a low income form.
If car is the cheapest means of transport, then you should be paid a mileage allowance.
All the links you need are on the Turn2Us page.
