Register a child as disabled

You can add your child to the disabled children and young people's register if they:

live in the Royal Borough of Greenwich
are aged 0 to 19
have a learning or physical disability that’s likely to have substantial and long-term adverse effects on their ability to carry out usual day-to-day activities

It's up to you if you add your child to the register – you’re still entitled to benefits such as Disability Living Allowance (DLA).

Being on the register does not require any contact or home visits from a social worker.
