Hi there,
May I recommend that you apply for PIP which is Personal Independenve Payments. It is a benefit designed to help you with any extra costs.
It doesn't matter how much you work or earn. It looks at what needs and difficulties you have.
But! May I make a big suggestion! DO apply for PIP like right now! Cos, however long it takes to process and assess.... If /when you reeiceive the benefit it is back paid from when you first call up.
