My husband has a club foot.He has worked for 20 years and never claimed a thing.He is now on long term sick pending an operation that may help or make him perm with a need for a walking stick.He will be in plaster for 3mths then physio of up to 5 mths.he cannot stand for long and is in pain,and on medication.i have to help him get in and out of the bath.I work 27 hrs a week but can cut it to 17.We rent our home privately.Are there any benefits we can claim.

Im a little confused by this why do you want to cut your hours down to 17 hours from 27 ?? Surly your not going to spend 10 hours a week getting him in and out of the bath :rolleyes: ??

If you are reducing your hours SO you can claim benefits,then that is wrong.:eek:
