Has anyone got any help or advice please to help my adult son lead an independent life, He is unable to walk very far with out support, and at the moment cannot get a job . either.
Are there groups which could help him, and his condition is progressive. He will loose the use of his legs and will need a wheel chair and ground floor accommodation in Chichester.
Desperate for help and advice please ,

Hi @wendycampbell welcome to the community, have you seen the Ataxia UK group?
Is your son claiming any benefits? We have a benefits calculator here that you can use to see what you could be entitled to.
@GeoffBosworth195661 do you have any advice?
