Dear all,

Has anyone encountered a student with diabetes receiving a PC through DSA? I have recommended a food allowance and/or a fridge for students with diabetes in the past, but never a PC. 
I have recently come into contact with a student who believes he is entitled to a PC because he has diabetes. He has provided his ELB with a GP's letter backing him up. However, the ELB have refused to give him the PC because I did not recommend it, and even now, I feel that I cannot justify why he would require one for reasons relating to his disability.

any feedback would be much appreciated.

thanks
