Delighted with the announcement that the mobility component of Disability Living Allowance (DLA) will not be removed from people living in residential care homes. I know this will be welcome news for residents of East Surrey and particularly for the residents at Heatherley Cheshire Home in Copthorne whom I met earlier this year. Glad the Government has taken on board and considered the impact that removing the mobility component would have had.
