Does anyone know if you can claim dla for a 4 year old child with type 1 diabetes?
I was thinking that if the criteria is that the child requires more care than a 'normal' child of the same age, then you would be able to claim. The child uses an insulin pump & there is a lot of care involved.
But someone told me that because diabetes isn't classed as a disability, then you can't get dla.
Just wondered if anyone here knew?
