Hi
I have a problem with my Direct payments. My local authority allows just £10 for my disability. I appealed giving Scopes feb 18 latest paper on how much disability costs. They took no notice.
they have assessed us (my husband and I on pension and pension credit DLA AA) they say we had to pay £100 per week each we cannot pay this! Any information would be gratefully received
