Don’t Delay. Order today!

If you’ve had a Needs Assessment and have received a DSA2 letter from your funding body confirming they will pay for your recommended support please don’t delay. It’s important you act quickly. Contact the chosen supplier(s) and arrange delivery of any equipment you may be eligible for as soon as you receive the letter. If you don’t act quickly, there is a possibility your supplier will refuse to honour the quotes originally supplied by the Assessor. In these cases, the funding body has to request new quotes from the Assessor. This results in unnecessary delays to you receiving help. So please remember, don’t delay. Order today!
