Question 1.
We want your comments on Bristol's list of Disability Related Expenditure (DRE) for 2016-17.
Background information:
DRE allowance is available if you are in receipt of disability related benefits and you have been assessed to receive a service by Bristol City Council. It is an allowance for additional spending because of your disability and is offset against the contribution you will be assessed to pay towards your service. Your DRE is the extra costs you incur for items due to your disability or incapacity. Sometimes this can be payment that you make to informal carers. These include your family as long as the support they provide is a part of your care plan. You must be able to provide proof of expenditure.
