Workshop on DLA including transition to PIP with Vilma Espinoza, Benefits Advisor.
We are delighted to welcome Vilma to provide this important workshop for parents covering:
- What is DLA
- How to apply
- Eligibility criteria
- How to complete the application
- Transitions from DLA to PIP
- How PIP is assessed
- Useful evidence to support claims
After the workshop, there are two one to one slots available with Vilma for form checking. The appointments are limited in time to 45 minutes each. *Please book the appointments separately*
Benefits advice surgeries are held on certain Friday mornings at The Crossway Centre, with appointments available for information and advice about Disability Living Allowance or help in completing the DLA form. These are facilitated by Vilma Watts, who will assist you in ensuring you receive all the benefits you are entitled to, and making the filling in of the sometimes daunting DLA form that much easier.
These can also be booked by those who have pre-school children or children not in education, as we are able to offer limited creche facilities on Friday mornings. Please request this when booking.
The times of the appointments are:
11.40 - 12.25
12.30 - 1.15
These appointments are free of charge, although donations are appreciated.
