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.

Hi @nikmia, there are some good resources mentioned above that are definitely worth looking into, including your Local Authority and GP. Let us know how you get on and if we can assist you with anything else. Do make sure you're taking care of yourself too.
Hope today is a good one for you and your family!
