Hi Whatever2016,
I would be happy to help you find out if you're entitled to any benefits and help you find some grants too.
A good place to start is the benefits calculator on our website and this will highlight any potential entitlements you have. http://www.scope.org.uk/support/disabled-people/check-benefits
You can also look for grants on our website too. http://www.scope.org.uk/support/disabled-people/search-grants
If you'd like to have a chat about this or you have any further questions, drop me a line and I can talk you through it all.
Best wishes
Debbie
