Depends how it affects him. He has to have greater needs than a child the same age.

Hi @alliep,
Welcome to Scope's online community! It's great to have you on board.
We have a section on our website dedicated to Disability Living Allowance which might be of interest to you. The Gov.UK website has some information on eligibility which you may also find useful.
I hope this helps. If you have any questions then please do get in touch!Liam -
