    Now that is a whole new can of worms to be opened. A good idea in principal but will be a shambles in the real world.

    Back OT

    Slightly off topic but don't understand the issue with this, surely thats what everyone does apart from social housing tennants at the moment on housing benefits. I may be missing something though.

    "Back o/t" what does this mean ?
    Play nice :eek: Just because I am paranoid doesn't mean they are not out to get me.:j

    Dear Lord, I am calling upon you today for your divine guidance and help. I am in crisis and need a supporting hand to keep me on the right and just path. My mind is troubled but I will strive to keep it set on you, as your infinite wisdom will show me the way to a just and right resolution. Amen.

    Not from my knowledge of people who have had adaptions but I suppose that is also a postcode lottery on what people receive in terms of meeting their needs.

    Private adaptations are different as I said very few SOCIAL SERVICES OT's will agree to stairlifts. It is not to do with funding.

    Well talking about getting on topic, I posted a good link the shelter website and appeals a few pages back and not one person commented or liked it :(

    So any helpful info I try to post gets ignored and everything else ends in discussion :cool:

    Even more confused now :j

    http://england.shelter.org.uk/get_advice/housing_benefit_and_local_housing_allowance/housing_benefit_problems_delays_and_appeals/housing_benefit_reviews_and_appeals

    It was sort of hidden in amongst a debate :)
