Leading disability organisations are joining forces and calling for the Government to keep Disability Living Allowance mobility component for people in residential care.
Disability Living Allowance (DLA) mobility component helps meet some of the extra costs disabled people can face getting around, for example, taxis (where there is no accessible public transport), electric wheelchairs and mobility aids. However, the Government plans to stop paying DLA mobility to people living in residential care and this will mean that many people will no longer have the money to meet these extra costs and face being trapped at home.
Help us to campaign against this cut by signing our petition at: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/dbcdla
