Answer 2

Your Son should qualify for Disabilty Living Allowance, there are two components ( care and mobility) and they come in three tiers, ( lower, middle and higher rate)depending on the severity of the disability.

You should also be able to get Invalid Carers Allowance.

Your local benefits office will be able to advise you better than me though, hope this helps.
