[QUOTE="copepod, post: 1189003, member: 21372"] Children can qualify for Higher Rate Mobility component of DLA from age 3 years and Lower Rate Mobility from age 5 years. However, it's unlike that a child with type 1 diabetes would qualify for either rate of mobility, unless they have additional health issues. For an adult to claim Carer's Allowance, they must provide at least 35 hours per week to a child in receipt of Middle or Higher Rate care component of DLA, or an adult who is in receipt of Standard or Enhanced Rate Daily Living component of PIP (Personal Indepence Payment). Plus to claim CA, the person must not be earning over a set amount per week. Your best course of action is to consult a welfare rights organistation at your local council or Citizens Advice Bureau or similar body, depending on your local situation. [/QUOTE]
