Hi,

 

I would like to know if there is any other help available for my father. He has just been awarded attendance allowance (finally) he has lots of things wrong with him, dementia, osteoporosis, copd etc. But because he is over 65 he gets attendance allowance rather than disability living allowance. My mother and I are both trying to care for him as he won't allow strangers in.

I just wondered if there is any other help out there for him as they are struggling financially, just scraping by and desperately need alterations doing to the house.

They can't get any other benefits as he has a private pension and they own their home.

Just wondered if there were any grants or maybe a crisis loan, anything really to ease the burden.

I am not sure on this to be honest I would have to ask them. The only investments I think they have is obviously the house and they have a policy for paying for their funerals. Someone has said they may qualify for a grant towards central heating as they do not have this but I'm not sure if they would get it with just Dads attendance allowance.
