Disability-related expenses
Plain English definition
From:
Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) Jargon Buster
Money that you have to spend on things because of your disability, that you would not have to spend otherwise. This may be for things like extra laundry, high heating bills or special clothes. The law says that your council should look at these expenses when it does a financial assessment, to work out how much you can reasonably afford to pay for chargeable services.
