Hi, my name is MarkChris58! - Income support decreasing
Hello, well the title is my name and my sons together. I've been a single parent with him since 1990, and he's now 31. My son has numerous problems, and attends a daycentre 4 days a week. Which are limited hours.
This last 4 years I was forced to stop my full time work, partly due to help drying up for my son and partly my own health as I'm getting older.
At present I receive income support and carers allowance. This is partly the reason for joining, as my income support is going down, so it is now £87.60 a fortnight. I wondered if anyone else as had this?
Thankyou
Mark

You might like to try our benefits calculator, you can fill in all of your details and it will tell you what you could be entitled to.
If you then need more support in how to apply for them, let us know and we can try and get you more information and help.
Good luck!
