Ring the DLA up and let them know, they may ask you to fill in a new form, other than that i dont know, someone who knows more will be along soon

Phone them & tell them that your needs have changed & they will send you another form to fill out.

I recently got upgraded from lower rate care to middle rate care.

Send as much evidence to back up your new situation as possible & it shouldnt take too long to get sorted as mine didn't.

Good luck.

It is also worth considering that an award may not just go up but can also stay the same or go down. It would be best to take advice from a Welfare Rights Officer as they will know more about this than a psychologist.

And remember if your current claim ends in a years time you will be sent renewal forms around november/december anyway.
