I am a 39 year old lady with cerebral palsy who is medically retired from work. I feel neurological physiotherapy would help my mobility and pain levels. Is there anywhere I can get help with funding this treatment? x

See your GP for NHS referral?0 -
Hi OP,
If you want NHS treatment, then it isn't you who decides what would be in both yours and the NHS's best interests, it will be a doctor and the clinical commissioning group, who can award specialist funding when it is recommended and required.
Your GP would be your first port of call - if it is a private treatment, there are very few funding options.0 -
If you are claiming DLA/PIP you could use this to fund private treatment. If you're not currently claiming, you could look and see whether you might be eligible for PIP.0
