The Carers and Disabled Children Act 2000 extended access to direct payments to 16- and 17-year-old disabled young people. A project carried out at the Norah Fry Research Centre, sought to collate the work going on in this area; to highlight the main issues facing young disabled people who would like to access direct payments; and to produce a resource with and for young disabled people to promote take-up. The extension of direct payments to 16- and 17-year-olds aims to provide opportunities for young disabled people to increase their independence and choice. Some young disabled people saw direct payments as a potentially significant means to achieving greater autonomy and control but they were also concerned about the obstacles they would confront in trying to access them.
