Benefits advice for disabled

Support meeting

Disabled people and their carers in the west of Edinburgh are being offered advice about changes to their benefits.

The event has been organised by disability information service Grapevine and is supported by the West Edinburgh Neighbourhood Partnership.

Grapevine’s Catherine Garrod said: “We are running several information events to inform disabled people and their families about the benefit changes – especially to Disability Living Allowance – to explain how they may be affected.”
