Disability Living Allowance and Child Disability Payment are made up of two components - care and mobility.
If your child has personal care needs at certain parts of the day, but not throughout the day, they may be entitled to the low rate care component. To claim you must be able to demonstrate that these needs are substantially more than those of healthy children of the same age.
The low rate mobility component is paid if your child can walk but needs more guidance or supervision outdoors than a non-disabled child of the same age. The high rate mobility component is paid if they have great difficulty in walking, cannot walk at all, are deaf and blind or sometimes just blind or, in certain circumstances, where a child has a severe mental impairment and exhibits behavioural problems out of doors.
If your child has an illness or disability that affects their daily life then it is worth finding out whether you can claim for them. Each claim is assessed individually to see whether the eligibility rules are met and which rate is payable.
The benefit is not means-tested so it does not matter what other income or savings you have. Your child must be aged 3 months or over to claim care component unless they are paid under 'special rules'. To claim mobility component they must be at least 3 years old.
